Energy imparted by the hammer per blow= (pile resistance)(penetration per hammer blow)
According to the EN formula, the pile resistance is the ultimate load, Qu ekspressed as:
𝑊 ℎ
𝑄𝑢 = 𝑅 (11.105)
𝑆 +𝐶
Dimana:
WR = weight of ram
h = height of fall of the ram
S = penetration of pile per hammer blow
C = constanta
Also, a factor of safety, Fs=6, was recommended for estimating the allowable pile capacity.
Note that, for single- and double-acting hammers, the term WR h can be replaced by EHe
where E is the efficiency of the hammer and He is the rated energy of thehammer. Thus,
𝐸𝐻
𝑄𝑢 = 𝑆 +𝐶𝑒 (11.106)
The EN formula has been revised several times
over the years, and other pile-drivingformulas also
have been suggested. Three of the other
relationships generally used are tabulated in Table
11.16.
The maximum stress developed on a pile during
the driving operation can be estimated from the
pile-driving formulas presented in Table 11.16. To
illustrate, we use the modified EN formula:
