RECOMMENDED PRACTICE FOR DESIGN, MANUFACTURE AND INSTALLATION OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE PILING

This article covers the design of prestressed concrete piling, materials and manufacture, handling and transportation, and an extensive discussion of installation including best driving practices. Allowable stresses are given, and typical interaction charts are used to show their application to piles subject to bending. Sample design problems are used to suggest design approaches. Load testing is also covered. Selected references and reference standards are included.
