(Institution of Civil Engineers, 2007-01)Due to increasing time, cost and transportation difficulties, Irish contractors are seeking an alternative to conventional static pile load tests. As a result several firms have adopted dynamic testing techniques to ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2011-03)With one of the highest energy dependencies in the European Union, Ireland must adapt quickly to renewable energy technologies or risk paying the penalty in the form of high energy prices in years to come. Escalating ...

(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2009-06)This paper presents the results of a series of field experiments performed to study the development of shaft resistance on Continuous Flight Auger piles installed in sand. The test piles were instrumented in order to ...
-
(Springer Verlag, 2011-07)The rapid expansion of the offshore wind sector, coupled with increasing demand for high rise structures, has placed renewed demand on the driven piling market. In light of this industry growth, this paper reviews the ...
-
(ASTM International, 2010-01)This paper describes the development of a model instrumented open-ended (pipe) pile. The importance of model geometry and separating the shaft, annular and plug load, and horizontal effective stresses is discussed. A ...
-
(ASCE, 2012-08)Offshore piles are subjected to complex loading regimes, which include both rapidly applied static and cyclic loads. This note describes an experimental investigation conducted in order to assess the factors influencing ...
