Various the low noise & vibration pile methods were developed and used in many construction sites. Low noise & vibration pile methods must be used essentially from the sites where popular complints would be expected. In this paper, low noise & vibration pile methods and screw pile methods were investigated, noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile method, also, was studied and its constructibility and applicability were analyzed.

A FE analysis of a noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile constructed into an in-situ site were performed. During constructing a screw PHC pile, the component stresses, maximum stresses of pile connecting parts and relative displacements of pile were analyzed.

Noise and vibration triggered by pile driving in a construction site not only give hard time to the surrounding areas but could also cause residents nearby to file civil complaints to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop low noise & low vibration pile methods. A noise & vibration-free screw concrete pile method proposed in this study is one of the successful outputs. It penetrates pile underground by rotating and pressing in body of the pile to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method.

Noise & vibration-free screw pile method is being developed for solution of noise and vibration problem in existing pile method. In this paper, prior to pilot test construction, conditions which a PHC pile and a screw PHC pile were constructed into ground were modeled by finite element code and through the parametric study in cohesive soils, the behaviors of two kinds of pile according to soil characteristics were compared.

In doing the foundation work in the downtown, the popular complaints by means of Noise and vibration have been became heavy burden. Therefore, the noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile method will contribute to the foundation work by removal of the popular complaints and improvement of the constructability. In this paper, the load bearing capacity and displacement characteristics of the noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile were analyzed. The noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile's behavior was better well than the existing PHC pile's one.

In this study, a new noise & vibration-free screw concrete pile method that was expected environmentally friendly method was introduced, also the numerical analyses of a conventional PHC pile and a new screw concrete pile were done. As a result, the bearing capacity behavior and the settlement behavior of 2 kinds of concrete pile were analyzed and compared.

Noise and vibration due to pile driving cause residents nearby construction sites to file civil complaints and to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop several types of low noise & low vibration pile methods. In this study, a new noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method proposed as a low noise & low vibration pile. It penetrates into the ground by rotating and pressing to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method. Based on this study, features of the noise & vibration-free screw pile method, production of screw concrete pile prototype, two pilot tests and subsequent construction method were determined.

Screw piles(Helical piles and anchors) are increasingly used to support and rehabilitate reinforced structures subjected to both tensile and compressive axial loads. This study presents a variety of detailed investigation on especially pull-out characteristics of screw piles performed to both reduced scale and numerical analysis to identify fundamental failure mechanisms and empirical optimized geometry of screw piles. It was found that the pull-out characteristics of screw piles are influenced with mainly different frequencies of compaction around soil and screw pile's pitch and followings are practical data based on empirical analysis.

Because the regulation for a noise and a vibration in our country has been being reinforced more and more, a more environment-friendly pile construction method than a current low-noise and low-vibration method was needed for the close construction in the downtown area. In this study, the characteristics of a screw concrete pile method for noise and vibration-free method was explained, and it's vertical bearing capacity was studied in the base of the static pile load test data of the screw concrete piles. Constructed by two methody; a pre-digging shoe type construction method and a toe-jetting shoe type construction method. The vertical load bearing capacity of a screw pile constructed by the former was more about 70% than that of a screw pile constructed by the latter.

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the pullout characteristics of screw anchor pile using field pullout tests. A series of field pullout tests were performed on screw anchor piles with different geometric characteristics such as shaft and screw diameters. The results indicated that screw anchor piles exhibited significantly higher pullout capacities compared with the same diameter piles without screw. Also observed is that the set-up effect and the grouting significantly increase pullout capacities, although the magnitude of the increase depends on the ground condition. In addition the applicability of prediction methods for helical pile pullout capacity to screw anchor piles was also examined. The results are presented in such a way that the pullout characteristics of screw anchor piles with different installation conditions can be identified. Practical implications of the findings are discussed.
