Engineer’s Pile Driving Institute

PDCA’s Engineers Driven Pile Institute or EDPI, is geared toward engineers with 2-10 years of experience with the primary goal of providing these engineers with additional tools to recommend, design, specify and/or inspect driven pile foundations.  The 2-day program offers 15.5 PDH’s of in-depth instruction on current driven pile foundation design and construction practices.

 

Upon completion of the EDPI seminar, participants will be able to:
•    Select an appropriate driven pile type and section applicable to the subsurface conditions and loading requirements.
•    Identify appropriate design methods for single piles and pile groups.
•    Evaluate the suitability of pile driving equipment, installation aids, and procedures.
•    Recognize key driven pile specification requirements and plan details.
•    Explain driven pile inspection procedures and inspection records.
•    Interpret static and dynamic load test results and associated load transfer information.
