1 NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN AUGER PRESSURE GROUTED (APG) PILES Presented by: Tracy Brettmann, P.E., D.GE Berkel & Company Contractors, Inc.
2 Advantages of APG Piles Speed of Installation High Capacity Economic Adaptable to Limited Access Areas Minimal Vibrations from Installation Installation Independent from Soil Conditions Berkel & Company
3 Berkel & Company What are APG and APGD piles?

30 PIR-A Components Control Unit Magnetic Flowmeter Berkel & Company
31 PIR-A Data Berkel & Company
32 Berkel & Company Nondestructive Testing (NDT)
33 NDT Controversy Many methods and versions available Experiences with NDT have ranged from very good to complete failure Reliability of methods have been questioned NDT practitioners are unwilling (or unable) to make quantitative judgements NDT creates more questions than answers Berkel & Company
34 APG Piles Unique Properties Large length to diameter ratio (>30) High component of capacity in skin friction Pumping grout under pressure through layered soils produces multiple changes in cross-sectional area (bulges) These properties limit the applicability of certain types of NDT methods Berkel & Company
35 Integrity Testing Methods Impulse echo methods - testing from the pile top with a hammer impact Limited to an L/D ratio <30 Cannot detect small (< 1 ft long) defects Difficult to distinguish bulges and necking Use should be limited to providing additional information - not as a sole pass/fail indicator Berkel & Company
36 Impulse Echo (PIT or PET) Berkel & Company
37 Impulse Echo (PIT) Figure courtesy of Pile Dynamics Inc Berkel & Company
38 Records Can Be Difficult to Distinguish A B C
39 Simulated Response - Bulge
40 Simulated Response - Bulge
41 Simulated Response - Neck
42 Sonic Logging Crosshole for large piles and singlehole for small (<24 inch) piles Developed to overcome sonic echo limitations Access tubes must be installed in piles Potential for debonding between PVC and grout is a problem Typical testing rate is 1 to 10% Berkel & Company
43 SSL Set-Up and Sonic Log Berkel & Company
44 Sonic Logging Berkel & Company
45 NDT Summary Evaluation of NDT records must include three initial steps 1. Review the soil conditions 2. Review the detailed pile installation records 3. Review the NDT records Use this information to determine if the anomaly is indeed a defect in the pile A bulge in the pile would not be considered a defect
46 Limited Headroom Application
47 Limited Head Room (LHR) Installation Used where overhead clearances are at least 8.5 ft Track-mounted or forklift mounted drilling equipment Piles are drilled with auger sections typically 3 ft to 10 ft in length Installation time much longer than with cranemounted equipment Berkel & Company
48 Typical Limited Head Room Rig Berkel & Company
49 Track Mounted LHR Rig Berkel & Company
50 Earth Retention
51 Earth Retention - Temporary Berkel & Company
52 Earth Retention - Permanent Berkel & Company
53 Ground Modification
54 Ground Modification Systems Installation of displacement piles results in an increase in soil density Liquefaction mitigation Piled rafts using APGD piles to increase modulus of soil Cast-in-place ground improvement elements (CGE) Mechanically compacted ground improvement elements (MGE) Berkel & Company
55 Cast-in-Place Ground Improvement Elements CGE s Same equipment and processes as auger pressure grouted displacement piles May be cast with normal grout mixes or low strength fillers, depending upon application Berkel & Company
56 Alternative: MGE Feed granular material via reverse rotation to form a Mechanically compacted Ground improvement Element 1. Tooling rotated in downward transport direction to the target improvement level. Can be rotated in the upward transport direction where necessary to penetrate hard zones. 2. Feed granular material via reverse rotation. Use increase in torque or crowd to determine when to move up to next increment. 3. Continue until ground heave is noted at the surface.
57 Auger Pressure Grouted Energy (APGE) Piles
58 Geothermal Technology Geothermal heat pumps, or ground source heat pumps, replaces/supplements traditional air conditioning and furnace systems The heat pumps simply move the heat from one place to another absorbing heat from the ground during heating and extracting heat from the building during cooling Geothermal systems deliver up to 4 times more energy than they consume resulting in both cost savings and carbon reduction (up to 50%) Berkel & Company
59 Geothermal Solutions Geothermal Interna?onal
60 Benefits of using APGE Piles Low extra over cost for geothermal installation Minimal impact on piling program Uses building piles as thermal mass Heat recovery between seasons Makes excellent Value Engineering sense Provides a Stable & Sustainable energy source Geothermal Interna?onal
61 Thermal Conductivity Testing
62 Thermal Conductivity Conductivity is one of the key components used in both the design and operation of geothermal systems The ability to measure the thermal conductivity of an energy pile is key to proving the pile is acceptable, similar to running a pile load test to prove capacity
63 Thermal Conductivity Values (SI Units - W/m*K) Air: HDPE: 0.45 (PVC: 0.23) Water: 0.6 Glass: 1.0 Thermally Enhanced Borehole Grout: 1.35 Normal Concrete/Structural Grout: 1.35 Ice: 2.0 Saturated Clay: Saturated Sand: Limestone: Shale: Granite: Copper: 390 Diamond: 545
64 Test Procedures ASHRAE published recommended procedures for formation thermal conductivity tests (2007) Test duration is 36 hours minimum but 48 hours is preferable Data should be analyzed using the line source method Power variation should be less than 10% Heat rate should be between 15 W to 25 W per foot of depth
65 Thermal Conductivity Test Unit
66 APGE Pile and Pipe Loops
67 Group Test Results
68 Conclusions APG piles have many advantages that will result in continued use and market growth New APGD (displacement) piles can now be better utilized in soft soil conditions and for ground improvement Pile load testing, automated monitoring, integrity testing can be used for better quality control Piles can be used for low headroom, earth retention and ground improvement applications Energy piles can be used for cost effective and energy efficient heating and cooling applications Berkel & Company
