Prestressed Concrete Fender Piles - Analysis and Final Test Pile Details
Using prior test results this study refined an analytical model investigating various alternatives to optimize concrete pile design for Navy piers. Parameters evaluated were: size, prestressing force, load application, ductility, placement of reinforcement, and concrete strength. It was demonstrated that prestressed concrete piles will outperform steel and timber piles in a pile-for-pile energy comparison and are more cost-effective. Recommendations are made for a final test program. Keywords: Fenders, Piles, and Fender piles.
