in the piling design with respect to the overall superstructure.
Moreover, the project team had to carefully select the rigs and
machinery due to the loading restrictions on top of the tunnel.
To minimize any inconveniences and nuisances to the public
caused by driving the steel H-piles, the project team had

to reschedule the working sequences of some piling works to
avoid pile driving at certain times, as well as installation of noise
barriers around the piling works. The team also maintained a
24-hour hotline to handle any complaints or concerns from nearby
residents promptly.
Pile Dynamics offers a variety of testing solutions for driven piles.
The Pile Driving Analyzer® (PDA) is a reliable and cost effective QA testing system that evaluates shaft integrity, driving
stresses and hammer energy when monitoring pile installation.
CAPWAP® signal matching software uses PDA data to estimate total bearing capacity and resistance distribution
along the shaft at the toe.
The newly released GRLWEAP14 Wave Equation Analysis software is available for pile simulation and hammer analysis.
The Static Load Tester (SLT) automatically obtains and records reliable readings at programmable load
intervals during a static load test.
