The first book on the subject written by a practitioner forpractitioners. Geotechnical Instrumentation for Monitoring FieldPerformance Geotechnical Instrumentation for Monitoring FieldPerformance goes far beyond a mere summary of the technicalliterature and manufacturers’ brochures: it guides readersthrough the entire geotechnical instrumentation process, showingthem when to monitor safety and performance, and how to do it well.This comprehensive guide: * Describes the critical steps of planning monitoring programsusing geotechnical instrumentation, including what benefits can beachieved and how construction specifications should bewritten * Describes and evaluates monitoring methods and recommendsinstruments for monitoring groundwater pressure, deformations,total stress in soil, stress change in rock, temperature, and loadand strain in structural members * Offers detailed practical guidelines on instrument calibrations,installation and maintenance, and on the collection, processing,and interpretation of instrumentation data * Describes the role of geotechnical instrumentation during theconstruction and operation phases of civil engineering projects,including braced excavations, embankments on soft ground,embankment dams, excavated and natural slopes, undergroundexcavations, driving piles, and drilled shafts * Provides guidelines throughout the book on the best practices
"A study was undertaken on the performance of pile driving systems and the existing technology for the measurement of performance parameters was reviewed. This report is an inspection manual for use by pile driving inspectors and engineers to ascertain that the pile hammer conforms to certain minimum standards, and to record observations on hammer and driving system behavior. The manual considers only impact hammers; i.e., a large weight is alternately being raised and then accelerated downward, impacting against the pile top. Vibratory hammers, which operate on a different principle altogether, have been excluded from this manual. In addition to pile impact hammers, the manual addresses the complete driving system to include cushions, helmets, and leads. Also included as an aid to the inspector/ engineer, are comprehensive field inspection data forms"--Technical report documentation page
