Prediction of pile drivability from CPT and WEAP analysis

Pile drivability is a difficult problem because of the complex dynamic pile-soil behaviour. The current procedure in predicting blow count during pile driving uses the Smith’s one-dimensional wave equation model with input appropriate soil resistances during pile driving. There is no general cons...
