Pile drilling replaces driving
Construction of foundation of Royal Orleans Hotel in New Orleans, La, by pile drilling method to 60 ft below street level, in order to prevent damages in surrounding buildings; clay soil was stiff enough to hold walls of holes until piles could be inserted; caving-in of sand layer was prevented by mud lining of hole; piles were driven last 10 ft in sand; passing trucks on street gave higher seismograph readings than piling operation.
