Consid er all critical conditions (i.e., scour, excavation, etc.) to determine the estimated driving resistance (blows per foot), and maximum tensile and compressive stresses during driving and end -of-drive conditions. Analyze splices, casing used, prebored hole s, jetting, and other driving methods, if proposed. Verify driving conditions at various locations if the soil conditions change within the project area. Acceptance of the pile driving system will be based on the wave equation analysis computer program a nd as required elsewhere in this subsection. Provide sealed, signed, and dated calculations by a Louisiana registered professional engineer. Acceptance of the pile driving system does not relinquish responsibility for driving the piles to the required pi le tip elevation without exceeding the allowable pile stress limitation or causing damage. The acceptance criteria used to evaluate the pile driving system from the wave equation will be the pile driving resistance and pile driving stresses. The target nu mber of hammer blows at the required end of driving pile resistance for bearing piles shall be a maximum of 120 blows per foot. The pile driving resistance at any depth above the required pile tip elevation shall be less than 240 blows per foot. Do not e xceed the maximum allowable pile driving stresses in 804.07.6 . The drivability analysis is based on the maximum driving resistance needed to obtain minimum penetration requirements specified on the plans, and overcome resistance of soil that cannot be c ounted upon to provide axial or lateral resistance throughout the design life of the structure; e.g., material subject to scour or down drag, and obtain the required bearing resistance. When the wave equation analysis shows the proposed equipment or method s will result in either the inability to drive the pile with a reasonable driving resistance to the desired pile capacity or will exceed the maximum allowable pile driving stresses, modify or replace the proposed methods or equipment at no expense to the D epartment until subsequent wave equation analyses indicate that the proposed pile driving system and driving methods meet the required criteria for acceptability stated herein. As mentioned above, ultimate acceptance of the pile driving system is continge nt upon trial and continued satisfactory performance in the field. The engineer may require further modification of the driving system if field observations indicate that the driving system is inadequate for any of the proposed driving operations for the project. Make any required changes, including supplying additional hammers, which may result from unsatisfactory field performance.

804.07.7 1 Pile Penetration Requirements : Practical refusal
blow count depends on the site soil profile, the pile type, and hammer manufacturer limitations to prevent hammer damage. Practical refusal is broadly defined as a rate of 20 blows per inch at maximum stroke, for 3 consecutive inches. However, depending on site conditions, this criterion may not always be applicable. If practical refusal is encountered above the required plan tip elevation or o rder list tip elevation, a larger hammer capable of achieving the required penetration or pile installation techniques, such as preboring or jetting, may be required. Assure that the hammer is in proper working order. If hammer performance needs to be evaluated, the engineer may require dynamic monitoring.

If practical refusal is encountered above the required plan tip elevation or o rder list tip elevation, a larger hammer capable of achieving the required penetration or pile installation techniques, such as preboring or jetting, may be required. Assure that the hammer is in proper working order. If hammer performance needs to be evaluated, the engineer may require dynamic monitoring. If the hammer performance indicates that pile driving system efficiency is not satisfactory, Table 804-1 Maximum Allowable Driving Stresses 1 Tensile Driving Stress (Normal Environments):
804.07.7 Extent of Driving: Drive piles to the plan tip elevation or
the order list tip elevation in accordance with the plans and specifications. If the penetration requirements and bearing capacity are achieved wi thin 5 feet above the plan tip elevation or order list tip elevation, the engineer may consider penetration and capacity requirements to be satisfied. If penetration and bearing capacity requirements are not achieved within 5 feet above the plan tip eleva tion or order list tip elevation, acceptance from the engineer of record shall be required to terminate pile driving. Pile embedment shall not be less than 20 feet below the bridge scour elevation, unless indicated on the plans. Use the following require ments to evaluate satisfactory penetration and resistance.
804.07.7 1 Pile Penetration Requirements : Practical refusal
blow count depends on the site soil profile, the pile type, and hammer manufacturer limitations to prevent hammer damage. Practical refusal is broadly defined as a rate of 20 blows per inch at maximum stroke, for 3 consecutive inches. However, depending on site conditions, this criterion may not always be applicable. If practical refusal is encountered above the required plan tip elevation or o rder list tip elevation, a larger hammer capable of achieving the required penetration or pile installation techniques, such as preboring or jetting, may be required. Assure that the hammer is in proper working order. If hammer performance needs to be evaluated, the engineer may require dynamic monitoring. If the hammer performance indicates that pile driving system efficiency is not satisfactory, adjust the pile driving system until satisfactory performance is observed. Obtain written acceptance from t he engineer before implementing changes to the accepted Pile Installation Plan, including early termination of driving. The cost of dynamic monitoring due to unsatisfactory hammer performance and any resulting delays shall be at no expense to the Departme nt.
804.07.7 2 Pile Resistance Requirements : Determine pile
resistance throughout driving in accordance with 804.09 and the plan information. If pile resistance is less than expected, leave the pile approximately 1 foot above cut -off elevation to allow for evaluation. One or more of the following actions may be taken as coordinated with the Chief Construction Engineer: perform a restrike to check for increased resistance due to soil set -up, load pile to determine its ultimate resistance, or continue to drive until obtaining satisfactory resistance. If resistance results are affected by excess pore water pressure, or if this condition was observed during field testing of test, indicator, or monitor piles, perform restrikes as directly by the engineer to determine resistance after sufficient dissipation of excess pore water pressure has occurred.
804.07.8 Production Pile Restrikes: Perform all pile restrikes
with a warm hammer th at has applied a minimum of 20 blows to another pile or dummy block immediately before being used to restrike the selected pile. For precast concrete piles, use the original pile cushion used during initial driving. If the original pile cushion used to d rive precast concrete piles is no longer in acceptable condition, use another similarly used cushion that is in acceptable condition. During restrike, achieve a maximum penetration of 3 inches or a maximum of 20 blows, whichever occurs first. Report rest rike blow counts as the number of hammer blows per increment of 1 inch.
804.07.9 Heaved Piles: If pile heave is observed, take level
readings referenced to a fixed datum on all piles within a 15 -feet radius after installation and periodically thereafter as adjac ent piles are driven to determine the pile heave range. Continue measurements until the engineer determines that such checking is no longer required. Redrive all end bearing piles that have heaved more than ½ inch to the required resistance or penetratio n at no expense to the Department. Do not place concrete in pile casings until all piles in a footing have been driven.
804.07.10 Pile Extensions:

Obtain written acceptance from t he engineer before implementing changes to the accepted Pile Installation Plan, including early termination of driving.
