Some Lessons from “Savinov and Luskin”
One of the mysteries of geotechnical engineering relative to driven piles is why the Soviets, with their mathematical prowess, never applied wave mechanics to predict the performance of pile driving systems using the wave equation. In a sense this book, which is a classic in the geotechnical literature, answers that, but not in a direct … Continue reading Some Lessons from “Savinov and Luskin”

Most all of the material referenced in this book is in Russian and my guess is that most of it has never been translated into another language. So what I have … Continue reading References
Conclusion
For the rest of the book, click here. The resolution of the June plenum of the CPSU Central Committee emphasizes the need, when developing and implementing new technological processes and machines, to proceed from the point that they meet the requirements of the most rational and economical use of social labor, material and monetary resources, … Continue reading Conclusion
Immersion of Thin Steel Pipes into the Ground
In construction practice, it is sometimes necessary to immerse thin steel pipes into the ground, used as electrodes, piezometers, injectors for cementation or chemical consolidation of soils, etc. With a short pipe length of up to 5-8 m, this operation does not present any great difficulties and is performed manually by driving. As the length … Continue reading Immersion of Thin Steel Pipes into the Ground
Application of Vibratory Hammers in the Development of Frozen Soils
For the rest of the book, click here. For more information on the impact-vibration hammers, click here. When carrying out excavation work in winter or in permafrost conditions, the most labor-intensive and expensive operation is the loosening (preliminary destruction) of frozen soil. This operation is performed using various mechanisms and devices. All of them have … Continue reading Application of Vibratory Hammers in the Development of Frozen Soils
Application of Vibratory Hammers for Soil Compaction
For the rest of the book, click here. Vibratory compaction has become an important technique for soil improvement. It is interesting that at the start vibratory pile drivers were used in the early development of the technology. Vibratory pile drivers are increasingly used in industrial and hydraulic construction to compact soils. Currently, there are two … Continue reading Application of Vibratory Hammers for Soil Compaction
Use of Vibratory Hammers for Trenchless Pipe Laying
For the rest of the book click here. Currently, several methods are known for trenchless pipe laying: puncture - pressing closed pipes, punching with simultaneous development and removal of soil from the pipe and horizontal drilling. For trenchless installation of pipes with a diameter of up to 500 mm, used as casings for laying pipelines … Continue reading Use of Vibratory Hammers for Trenchless Pipe Laying
Drilling Using Vibration of Deep Dewatering and Artesian Wells
For the rest of the book click here. Recently, some construction organizations have begun to use the vibration method for immersing and removing large-diameter casing pipes. At Stalingradgidrostroy recently [65], a hydrovibration method for immersing pipes with a diameter of 400-500 mm has been developed and successfully implemented. Using this method, it was possible to … Continue reading Drilling Using Vibration of Deep Dewatering and Artesian Wells
Analysis of Vibratory Pile Drivers using Longitudinal and Rotational Oscillations with a Purely Plastic Soil Model
This is another in a series of technical reports on vibratory and impact-vibration pile driving equipment. It is scheduled to be presented at the 2024 Arts and Research Conference at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. You can download the paper here. The abstract is as follows: Abstract: Driving piles by longitudinal vibrations has been … Continue reading Analysis of Vibratory Pile Drivers using Longitudinal and Rotational Oscillations with a Purely Plastic Soil Model
