    • Comparison of five different methods for determining pile bearing capacities 

      Jaromin, David; Hendrix, Joshua; Long, James H. (Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2009-02)
      The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy and precision with which five methods can predict axial pile capacity. The methods are the Engineering News formula currently used by Wisconsin Department of Transportation ...
    • Construction vibration attenuation with distance and its effect on the quality of early-age concrete 

      Siwula, John; Helwany, Sam; Lyons, Richard (Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2011-09)
      Pile-driving, blasting, and other WisDOT construction activities create air- and ground-transmitted vibration forces that can damage existing and in-construction facilities. Wisconsin limits construction-based vibration ...
    • Estimating soil/pile set-up 

      Wagner, Alan; Edil, Tuncer; Komurka, Van (Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2003-09)
      Abstract Soil/pile set-up is time-dependent increase in pile capacity, and can contribute significantly to long-term pile capacity. If it were possible to incorporate the effects of set-up during design, it may be possible ...
