Pile driving technology remains the most widespread method in Arkhangelsk where the presence of soft soils is an engineering-geological feature. High quality of the pile shaft in the soft soil is guaranteed by using precast piles. New construction in the urban conditions is mainly carried out next to the adjacent buildings. During construction of a multi-section building ground works and pile driving are sometimes performed separately for each section but not for the entire building at once. The monitoring of pile...

Pile driving technology remains the most widespread method in Arkhangelsk where the presence of soft soils is an engineering-geological feature. There are situations when pile driving by hammer can be safe for existing buildings. Using two hammers allows to accelerate foundation works but it can damage the adjoining buildings. The monitoring of pile driving by two diesel impact hammers was carried out at one of the sites in the city. Vibration parameters were measured with triaxial accelerometer CMG-5 with continu...
