Abstract: The available literature indicates that pile side shear increases almost linearly with the logarithm of time elapsed after driving, sometimes described using a dimensionless setup factor. A test pile program conducted by ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the results of a driven pile side shear setup (SSS) test program performed at the University of Florida and described in a companion paper. All pile segments showed SSS, with similar magnitudes in both ...

Abstract: The paper describes the in situ investigation, site stratigraphy, field monitoring, data reduction, and subsequent time-domain analysis of soil–structure interaction from a full scale vessel impact loading of a bridge pier ...
