Practical Considerations for Design and Installation of Drilled Displacement Piles
A design methodology for the capacity of Drilled Displacement (DD) piles was presented at the International Deep Foundation Congress in 2002. Advances in final design / installation developed since then were incorporated into a DD pile program for two large hotels in Orange County, Florida. The site consisted of granular soils to about 15-m (50-ft) depth underlain by inter-bedded coarse and fine-grained soils. The original design called for 457-mm (18-in) diameter by 29.3-m (96-ft) long conventional auger cast piles. It was estimated that 457-mm (18-in) DD piles installed in the granular materials within the upper 15 m (50 ft) would more efficiently support the proposed loads. The project team elected to utilize DD piles at a substantial cost savings. This paper focuses on one of the two hotel areas. The conditions and construction methods are applicable to both hotel sites.
