This instruction manual offers a whole and designated review of piling platforms and their program. The layout and development of piled foundations relies on Eurocode 7 and DIN 1054 version 2010 in addition to the eu building codes DIN EN 1536 (Bored piles), DIN EN 12699 (Displacement piles) and DIN EN 14199 (Micropiles). those suggestions additionally deal with
- categorisation of piling systems,
- activities on piles from structural loading, unfavorable dermis friction and facet pressure,
- pile resistances from static and dynamic pile try out loading in addition to huge tables with the pile load-bearing means of approximately all piling platforms in accordance with values from useful experience,
- pile groups,
- functionality of static and dynamic attempt loading and integrity tests,
- load-bearing behaviour and verifications for piles below cyclical, dynamic and effect actions
- caliber insurance for construction.
An appendix with a number of calculation examples completes the work.
As a part of the approval technique for offshore wind power constructions, the Federal place of work for delivery and Hydrography (BSH) calls for verifications in line with the recent bankruptcy thirteen ("Load-bearing behaviour and verifications for piles less than cyclical, dynamical and influence actions") of the EA Pfahle (the thoughts of the Piling operating crew - 2d edition), which bargains with exterior pile resistance for the rules of offshore wind strength constructions and the kinds of verifications to be supplied lower than cyclical actions.
The booklet of the EA-Pfahle suggestions by way of the Piling operating team of the German Society for Geotechnics (DGGT), which goes with an identical individuals because the piling criteria committee NA 00-05-07, is meant to supply information for engineers lively within the layout, calculation and building of piled foundations. The techniques can hence be regarded as principles of the expertise and as a complement to the on hand codes and standards.
