NEW PILE DRIVING SYSTEMS REMOVE DANGER OF VIBRATION DAMAGE

DAMAGE TO ADJACENT STRUCTURES DUE TO VIBRATIONS CAUSED BY PILE DRIVING HAS BEEN ELIMINATED BY THREE NEW SYSTEMS. THE FIRST IS A VIBRATION DEVICE WHICH DRIVES PILES BY VIBRATING THEM AT LOW FREQUENCIES, ABOUT 5 CPS. THE SECOND IS ALSO A VIBRATING SYSTEM BUT IT UTILIZES HIGH FREQUENCY VIBRATIONS, ABOUT 5000 CPS. THE THIRD IS THE PRESSURE-PLACED CONCRETE PILING SYSTEM WHICH USES AN AUGER AND A PRESSURIZED GROUTING /CGRA/
