Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best practices for driving steel pipe piles?
When driving steel pipe piles, it’s important to select the appropriate pile tip based on soil conditions. For soft, obstacle-free materials, a flat plate welded to the pile tip may suffice. However, when penetrating soil layers with rocks or boulders, conical pointed tips (60 degrees) are recommended as they bring the reaction force to the centroid of the pile and provide protection against distortion in difficult driving scenarios.
How do you handle soil plugs that develop during pipe pile driving?
Soil plugs can develop at the point of open-ended pipe piles during driving. These plugs can be removed periodically by drilling or airlift to aid driving. However, removal is not always necessary, especially when the pile will remain in place as part of the permanent structure.
What safety precautions should be taken during steel pipe hoisting operations?
Safety during steel pipe hoisting requires several precautions:
- Find a safe station away from suspended objects, avoiding areas below suspension rods, in front of lifted objects, or in the triangle area of guide pulley steel ropes
- Understand the safety factor of lifting slings to prevent overweight operations
- Ensure lifted objects are securely bound, with “cushioning” for sharp edges
- Verify temporary lifting nose welding is secure and properly matched to the base material
What are common challenges in steel pipe pile construction?
Common challenges include:
- Excessive pile driving resistance making penetration difficult
- Interlock slip-off when using sheet piles
- Difficulty in pile pulling during removal of temporary structures
- Disturbance of surrounding soil layers
- Land subsidence or heaving during pile driving
How is the geotechnical bearing capacity of steel pipe piles determined?
The geotechnical bearing capacity consists of the pile point resistance and shaft resistance. It can be determined through several methods:
- Static bearing capacity formulas
- Empirical methods based on sounding resistance
- Dynamic pile driving formulas
- Stress wave analysis
- Based on penetration depth and final set measurements
What factors affect the lateral capacity of steel pipe piles?
Lateral capacity of steel pipe piles is influenced by:
- Soil conditions and lateral resistance
- Failure mechanisms of piles
- Ultimate values of lateral resistance and lateral pressure
- Displacement calculations
- Static and cyclic lateral loading considerations
- Safety factors in design
How do you address environmental effects of steel pipe driving?
Environmental effects like land subsidence or heaving and noise/vibration can be mitigated by:
- Removing fine-grained soil layers from the pile location
- Equipping piles with vertical drainage
- Dividing pile driving into periods or lengthening the duration
- Using open-ended piles to reduce disturbance
- Limiting the gross cross-section of close-ended piles
What considerations are important when setting up an A-frame gantry for pipe lifting?
When setting up an A-frame gantry:
- The A-frame apex must be rotated to center over the load
- The angle between the ground and A-frame should not be less than 45 degrees
- At this angle, the initial force on the hauling rope system is about 25% greater than the load
- The force in each A-frame leg will be about equal to the load as lifting begins
- Anchors for the hauling system should be placed at least 30 feet from the A-frame feet
What are critical angle considerations in steel pipe lifting operations?
The angle of rigging strap/cable attachments significantly affects forces:
- If the included angle of the rope system equals 120 degrees, the force in the rope and its attachment equals the supported load
- Larger angles increase force on the rope and anchors
- Smaller angles reduce force in the rope
- In lifting systems, the angle should be as small as possible for optimal efficiency
- The center of gravity should align with the lifting point for proper balance
How do you solve the problem of difficult pile pulling during removal?
To ensure successful pile pulling:
- Keep steel sheet pile and interlock smooth, straight, and unhindered
- Apply butter inside interlock during pile driving
- Record the number and position of built piles and any welding between pile bodies
- Estimate pullout force according to geological data and select appropriate equipment
- For difficult first piles, knock with a hammer to loosen interlock connections
- Insert steel tubes at both sides of the sheet pile and inject water and air to reduce side pressure
