Safe Vibropenetration of Sheet Piling near Existing Buildings

Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

Concise information is presented for the development of an effective vibratory method of sinking (extracting) sheet piling, which is based on results of investigations conducted by domestic scientists. Problems of rational vibropenetration of sheet piling near existing buildings with modern vibropenetrators, for example, the V-402 type, are examined; working conditions, which for a highly efficient process, make it possible to lower the level of vibrations of the adjacent ground to minimal values (and in a number of cases, to reduce it to zero) and, in this manner, ensure the safety of existing buildings and structures, are verified.
