Evaluation of Ground Vibrations from Pile Driving Conducted for Bridge Construction
Pile driving may affect adjacent and remote structures and their contents susceptible to vibrations. Therefore, it is important to evaluate expected vibrations prior to pile installation. A scaled-distance equation is the simplest and wide spread approach for calculating of the maximum velocity of ground vibrations prior to the beginning of production pile driving. This equation provides assessment of ground vibrations as a function of mostly the hammer energy and the distance from a driven pile. A choice of an appropriate distance and effects of the hammer energy together with other factors on ground vibrations are analyzed. Advantages and disadvantages of a scaled-distance equation are demonstrated.
