sure of unbalance. As a determining<br />

factor for amplitude it is a key<br />

parameter for driving operations.<br />

The speed dictates the vibration frequency of the system. The vibrations are<br />

transferred via the pile to the surrounding soil, significantly reducing the surface<br />

friction between pile and soil. High frequencies counter the unwanted spread of<br />

vibrations in the soil.<br />

The centrifugal force must be high<br />

enough to overcome surface friction<br />

between pile and soil.<br />

Centrifugal force plays a major part in<br />

reducing surface friction and provides<br />

impact force to overcome tip resistance.<br />

Together with centrifugal force, amplitude is a measure of driving performance. A large<br />

“stroke” and high “impact force” ensure good driving progress. When driving and<br />

extracting in cohesive soils, the elastic connection between pile and soil can only be<br />

broken if the amplitude is high enough.<br />

Transmission of the pile acceleration to the surrounding soil causes the displacement<br />

of the particle structure and reduces particle friction and soil resistance.<br />

Acceleration is indicated as the ratio of acceleration to gravity:<br />

The drive unit must be powerful enough to generate the moment needed to maintain<br />

the centrifugal force of the vibrator, even in difficult ground. The drive output should<br />

be 3 US HP per 1 US ton centrifugal force.<br />
