Pile Driveability analysis
USING DYNAMIC FORMULAPile driving dynamic formula were used to assess the driveability of the driven piles. Even now, for onshore works, this approach is used.In this method, final set at target penetration is used as a criteria to determine the stresses developed in the pile
WAVE EQUATION ANALYSISFor long piles, wave equation analysis is used. Typically offshore piles, this is used to assess the stresses developed during the driving process and the effort required to achieve the final penetration, and make a decision when to stop the driving process (Pile refusal Criteria)
Pile termination criteria is based on number of blows required for depth of penetration typically say 1m. Some times called Pile Refusal Crieteria. This needs to be set so that the field engineers can decide to stop driving any further.

Pile Driveability analysisThe basic assumption here is that solutions can be written as a product of two function Y(y), which depends upon y only and another function T(t), which depends only on t. Substitution of the above equation with differential equation gives

The left hand side of this equation depends upon t only, the right hand side depends upon y only. Therefore the equation can be satisfied only if both sides are equal to a certain constant.

Pile Driveability analysisSOIL RESISTANCE STATIC RESISTANCE (Rs) -- (-Ru < Rs < Ru)
Static resistance of soil is a function of displacement of the pile to the soil and is therefore present during static and dynamic loading. This varies with time. It achieves a maximum limit (Ru) which is the ultimate soil resistance for maximum displacement.
DYNAMIC RESISTANCE (DAMPING RESISTANCE) (Rd)Dynamic resistance related to the velocity of the pile and only present during dynamic loading.
Dynamic resistance can be approximated as fraction of static resistance using the relationship with velocity (V) of pile and a empirical constant (Js) Rd = JsVRu
TOTAL RESISTANCE (Rt)The sum of Static and Dynamic Resistances in the soil and varies with time.

The equations to update the displacement, velocity and acceleration at each time step for each element is given below. Initial velocity of Ram (Vr) shall be used to start with for the pile element at the top. The initial displacement of the pile segment at the top shall be assumed zero. The acceleration of the hammer can be taken as equal to gravitation acceleration (g).

Force on the pile spring can be calculated once the displacements of the pile segments are evaluated
The force on the soil spring can be calculated using the relative displacement of pile and soil together with the soil spring values and damping
Smith (1960) notes that the equation produces no damping when - becomes zero, and suggests an alternate equation to be used after first becomes equal to q, where q is the quake for element i.

Time IncrementSmiths lumped mass model is mathematically stable only if the computational time increment is chosen shorter than the shortest (critical) wave travel time of any segment l. The critical time increment is the time that it takes the stress wave to travel through the pile segment.
/cri i it L c or for a lumped mass element
12/cri i it m K Where mi, Ki, Li and ci are the segment mass, stiffness, length and stress wave speed in segment l respectively. The wave speed of the segment is 12/i i ic E With i being unit mass of the segment. Where pile properties change within a segment length, all segment properties are averaged.

In order to avoid instability, the computational time increment, t is chosen as
min /crit t Where min (tcri) stands for the minimum critical time increment ofall hammer and pile segments and is a number greater than 1.the program defaults to = 1.6.
While the critical time of the hammer-driving system pile model isnormally determined from the stiffest segment in hammer or drivingsystem, the program also checks the pile segments, considering theeffects of soil resistance on the stiffness of the pile segments. As aconsequence, GRLWEAP may select the computational time incrementwith smaller values from high capacities than for low capacities.

2. The displacement are calculated where for the first time-step, V is the initial velocity of the ram.

Pile Driveability analysisA setup factor of 2 was assumed as full setup achieved after 4 weeks. Although a setup factor of 2 may be considered low, it is consistent with the fairly large Fp factor of 0.65 considered for continuous driving. The estimated setup factor for 7 days and 48 hours are 1.88 and 1.76 respectively, accordingly to the equation above.
To apply the variable setup factor to the SRD method, the pile capacity factor Fp is:
0.3pF OCRWhere = 0.5 for no setupFp has been modified to allow for setup according to the following:
