The versatile Step-Taper pile is installed by driving a closed-end steel shell and heavy steel mandrel to the requ1red res1stance or penetration. The mandrel is then withdrawn and the shell filled with concrete. The shell is helically corrugated to resist subsoil pressures. Standard sections are 8. 12 and 16 feet long and nominal diameters range from 8 to 18 inches. Longer and larger shell sections can be made. Starting with the required tip diameter, sections are joined to make up the pile length needed, with an increase of one inch in diameter at each joint. The end product is a tapered pile which generally provides higher load capacities than non-tapered piles of the same length. Within limits. different section lengths can be combined to make a wide variety of pile shapes . Usually, 8 to 14-inch tip diameters with 12 to 16-foot lengths are used. By using different tip diameters and section lengths. piles can be made to satisfy almost any requirement. Joints are screw connected. with a drive ring and corrugated collar welded to the bottom of each section; the boot section 1s closed w1th a flat steel plate During dnv1ng a shoulder on the mandrel engages the drive ring at each joint and at the pile tip. Hammer energy is effic1ent1y transmitted through the rigid steel mandrel to each section and to the pile tip. There is no possibility of structural damage to the completed pile because of high driving stresses, since all of the driving is actually done on the steel mandrel. The result is optimum pile drivability, an important factor in the consistent success of Step-Taper piles in realizing the maximum load-bearing potential of almost any soil system. 11:Ys" 10¥8" H 0 00 u 8%" General view of Step-Taper shell assembly area. n:p TAP R Pll I= FEATURES AND BENEFITS ADVANTAGES OF STEP-TAPER PILES Variable Configurations The s1ze and shape of Step-Taper p 1es can be vaned over a w1de range to best sat1sfy subSOil cond1t1ons and loadmg requirements Driving Efficiency The steel mandrel effectively transmits hammer energy along the ent1re length of the pile w1th m1nor elastic energy losses. Effective Hard Driving The heavy steel mandrel used to dnve Step-Taper shells assures effective hard dnving for the development of pile capacity to the lim1tat1ons of the so1l. Flexibility The length of Step-Taper piles can be adjusted in the field to meet changing subsoil conditions as they are encountered Exact predetermination of length IS not necessary Waste IS mm1m1zed. Driving Resistance Retained - All penetration resistance developed during dnvlng is retained because the steel shell remams in intimate contact with surround1ng soli Structural Damage Eliminated The steel mandrel absorbs all dr•v1ng stresses concrete IS poured only after driVIng 1s complete and IS not subjected to poss1ble damage from dnv1ng forces. Easy Internal Inspection - The full length of each pile 1s eas1ly accessible for 1nspection after 1t and adjacent p1les have been dnvcn and before concrete 1s poured Proven Concreting Methods Spec1al concrete mixes combmed w1th field-tested and proven concretmg techn1ques assures the structural1ntegnty of each p1le. Concrete Protection - The steel shell permits proper setting prevents d1stortton and separat1on and ma1ntams a contmuous concrete section. Maximum Load Capacity Effective hard driving, full utilization of hammer energy, easy Internal inspection and protection of concrete by steel shell add up to h1gh load capac1ty w1th safety. Problem Solving Ray-Step personnel can draw upon their vast store of collective and individual expenence spanmng many years and situations to exped1t1ously solve the many problems Inherent 1n the 1nstallat1on of p1le foundations. Minimum Cost - H1gh capacity combined with Ray-Step's t1me-sav1ng methods, eff1c1ent equipment and expenence result m S1gn1f1cant savmgs m total foundat1on costs Fast Installation -Proper eqUipment, techn1ques and expertise add up to p1le 1nstallat10n rates which are d1ff1cult or 1mposs1ble for other contractors to match. The results: shorter schedules, reduced overall construction and fmance costs. and earlier ava1lab1hty of revenue-produc1ng fac1ht1es. Dependability Step-Taper p11es have been dnven for over s1xty years under almost every subsoil condition. The success and un1versal acceptance of StepTaper p1les by eng1neers. contractors and owners is your assurance of cost-effectiveness and quality. Assembled Step-Taper shells ready for driving. . Step-Taper shells are filled w1th high-quality concrete after internal inspection. ~n:p _T A PI=P PI I I=C Pipe Step· Taper Piles Typical Dimensions Since the maximum practical length of an all-shell Step-Taper pile is about 140 feet pipe is combined with shells to make up exceptionally long piles where high capacity, high quality piles are requ1red. Pipe is used for the lower portion of the pile, and shell sections for the upper part. If the drivmg mandrel extends only as far as the shell sections, the pipe wall1s of sufficient thickness to withstand driving forces. In some cases, the mandrel1s extended through the p1pe portion of the pile, depending on the capac1ty of the pile rig and other factors. However, the length of pipe Step-Taper piles is not limited by rig capacity. Piles can be installed in two or more stages, with the p1pe section or sections followed by the shell portion.

Both 120-ft steel piles dnven with 32.500 ft-lb hammer MANUFACTURING INSTALLATION Shell sections are assembled on a horizontal rack with joints screw-connected and waterproofed, usually with 0-rings. The assembly is then raised to a vertical position and placed over a full-length steel mandrel. The pile is installed by driving the internal steel man drel which carries the pile sheel to the required depth. When the pile shell is in place, the mandrel is withdrawn and the pile is checked internally for any damage which may have occurred because of subsurface obstructions encountered during driving, and axial alignment is verified . The final step is to fill ·~' the shell with concrete to cut-off grade. Excess pile shell lengths may be cut off either before or after concrete is poured. DETERMINING PILE-SOIL CAPACITY Methods for determining the capacity of the pile-soil system include static analyses (see Design Section), dynamic formulas and load tests. Driving criteria are indispensible to assure uniform loading capacity of piles and prevention of significant differential settlement of the completed structure. .

The design load is based on the final driving resistance of the pile over the last few inches of penetration. These pile driving formulas are somewhat inexact, since so many variables are involved in the hammercapblock-pile-soil system. In some cases, penetration resistance and the pile capacity will drop off with time (relaxation) but a more common occurrence is for penetration resistance and pile capacity to increase as the soil regains its shear strength after driving (soil freeze). Indication of soil freeze usually occurs within a relatively short time. and any type of computation should be based on retap data. Under normal circumstances, dynamic formulas may still be applied with reasonable confidence when experience and good judgement are used and design loads are not heavy. P T C II C Because of the limitations and possible unreliability of most dynamic formulas. and with the development of computer technology. the one-dimensional Wave Equation has now been applied to establishing driving criteria. In the absence of soil freeze or relaxation. the Wave Equation solution indicates the final penetration resistance (blows per inch) for the ultimate pile capacity required. Ray-Step foundation consultants can provide these solutions for any set of conditions. Load Tests Driving criteria are also established by pile load test results which can then be applied to production pile driving. These tests can be conducted prior to foundation design or in conjunction with installation to verity or establish the installation criteria and the pile design load. Procedures conducted during installation generally follow ASTM 0 1143. DESIGN Step-Taper piles work efficiently 1n most types of soils. They funct1on as either friction or point-beanng piles. or a combination of both. Structural Design Structural capacity for compressive axial loading is determined by applying the allowable compressive stress for the piling material to the cross-sectional area of the p1le at the critical section. which normally occurs 1n the upper third of the pile. and whrch can be determined by load tests on Instrumented piles Formulas for structural capacrty of Step-Taper piles follow Shell portion (unconfined): Pa =0.33 f'c Ac Shell portion (confined): Pa =0.40 f'cAc Pipe portion· Pa =0.33 f'c Ac + 0 35 fyAp in which. Pa = Allowable axial compressive load f c = spcc1fied 28-day concrete strength Ac = cross-sect1onal area of concrete at the critrcal section fy = specified yield strength of steel but not to exceed 36 ksi for computation purposes Ap = cross-sectional area of steel 1n pipe The capacity of the pile-soil system may be est1mated by static analyses. or by driving formulas or determ1ned by load tests. A safety factor of two is normally required , and a p1le structural capacity safety factor of more than two is standard procedure. Static Analysis A static analysis can be used to estimate the required pile length for a given load or the bearing capacity of a pile of a given length. However. varrat1ons rn soil characterrsllcs frequently occur within short distances, and usually change durrng p1le driving. Also, the static analysis must reflect the advantages of Step-Taper piles. or the results w1ll generally be conservative. Bearing Capacity in Cohesionless Soils The ultimate bearing capacities of Step-Taper piles in cohesionless soils can be calculated based upon a method proposed by Nordlund usrng the nomagraphs in F1gures 5-1. 5-2 and 5-3 for friction values and a standard bearing capac1ty formula for endbeanng values using Tables S-1 . 5-11 and S-Ill. The formula for calculat1ng the ultimate bearing capac1ty IS. R =Cp L+Nap oA HOMOGRAPHS FOR DETERMINING FRICTION VALU The confining action of the steel shell increases the u1t1mate strength of the concrete · the degree depend1ng on the thickness and d1ameter of the shell. An allowable stress of 0 40 f c has been established for confined concrete for shells of at least 14 gage and a nominal diameter not greater than 16 inches. Since the shell does not carry any of the axial load. the function of the steel is to resist hoop tension. Lateral Support Sufficient lateral support can be prov1ded by any soil other than a very fluid soil, to prevent buck1ng under axial compressive loads. Unsupported pile lengths (extending through air, water or very fluid soil) should be des1gned as columns for the loads rnvolved. Design vs. Driving Stresses Dynamic drrvrng stresses are usually considerably higher than static design stress. and could control the structural design of the pile. Since dynamic driving stresses are absorbed by the Step-Taper pile's steel mandrel, only service load stresses need to be considered for structural design. Pile-Soil Bearing Capacity A p1le should not be selected for 1ts structural capacity alone because the actual p1le bearrng capac1ty is generally controlled by the soil bearing capacitynot by the p1le's structural capacity. A C:::TI=P _TAPI=P Pll I=C::: in which : Ru = estimated ultimate capacity C = constant for Step-Taper pile shell from Figures 5-1 . 5-2. or 5-3 po = effective overburden pressure at mid-height of shell section or at pile tip. L = length of shell section NQ= bearing capacity factor from Table 5-I A = area of pile tip from Table 5-11 Use of Nomographs Each of Figures 5-1 , 5-2 and 5-3 show two families of curves, one of which is used to determine the value of the constant C for various shell sizes and shell lengths of 8, 12 or 16 feet. The other family of curves is used to determine the value of a limiting overburden pressure which represents a maximum to be used in the calculations of friction capacity for each shell size and section length . The indicated overburden pressure limits are based on experience and engineering judgement and should not be considered absolute. To enter nomographs, the Standard Penetration Test values N are first converted to an equivalent angle of internal friction q>. Before conversion to friction F ~ 52-< angles. the N values determined in the field are first multiplied by a correction factor given by the formula :t•J 20 CN = 0.771og _ p in which : CN = correction factor: p = effective vertical overburden pressure. tsf The corrected N values are used to determine the approximate equivalent friction angle according to Figure 19.5 in Peck, Hanson and Thornburn.141 End-Bearing Calculation The values of the factors used in calculating the endbearing capacity can be obtained from Tables 5-I , 5-11 . and 5-11 1. Table 5-I is entered with the angle of internal friction to find the corresponding value of the bearing capacity factor NQ. The tip areas for various Step-Taper shell sections are shown in Table 5-11. Table 5-11 1shows the recommended limits for NQpo in determining the end-bearing capacity. ;=:53.. ~ ....... , , . r / ~ ~ ,J ,-J ___., - ,-il ..........~.. .,. , , ..! : : :--:7, ~,-;: ... .,....,. ... ..,. .,. ,. , ..

Use calculated Tt:D T D Dl r:: Pile Drivability Pile drtvabtlity often determines the ultimate load capacity which can be achieved by dynamic driving. Pile stiffness largely determines dnvability. The stiffness of a pile is expressed as T = AE/L; modulus of elastictty is E. cross-secttonal area is A and pile length is L. Stiffness or drtvabtlity is not a function of steel yield strength. Modulus of elasticity of steel piles rematns constant despite any 1ncrease 1n yteld strength. When ptpe 1s driven without an internal mandrel. or for steel ptles. stiffness factors and limitattons become Important constderattons. and piles with adequate wall thickness or cross-sectional area must be used Group Capacity For predominantly point-bearing piles and for friction piles in granular soils. group capacity can be considered at least equal to the sum of individual pile capacities. For cohesive soils, factors such as shear strength. beanng capacity of the soil, support by shear on the periphery and by end-bearing on the base area of the group. should all be considered. Group reduction formulas based on spactng and number of ptles are not recommended. Uplift Capacity Uplift capac1ty can be estimated using pile and soil properties For friction piles. it can usually be considered to be at least 50 percent of the pile bearing capacity. If uplift capacity is critical it should be determined by field test The Step-Taper shape has proven eHect1ve in developing uplift as well as bearing capac1ty Lateral Capacity Although batter piles are usually used to carry large honzontal loads, vertical piles can be des1gned to accommodate lateral loading. Analysis of lateral loading capacities should be based on factors such as axial compressive loads. passive soil pressures and methods using soil modulus and the beam-on-elastic foundation theory The Dcsrgn Gu1dc Charts (Figs. 5-4 to 5-12 inclusive) can provide a preliminary estimate of re1nforcing steel needed in Step-Taper piles for the conditions shown Internal Reinforcement Reinforc1ng steel is required only when the concrete in the pile may be under tension from such conditions as uplift. high lateral loads. or for unsupported pile lengths. For uplift loads. steel is bundled if more than one bar is requ1red . and installed in the port1on of the p1le under tension The amount. of course is dictated by the magnitude of the load . Steel Installed to resist bending of for unsupported pile lengths should be placed in a Circular pattern using four to six bars. Depth requtred for reinforcement to res1st bending 1s rarely more than 15 feet below ground surface. The use of high strength bars is generally most practical.

GENERAL 1.1 All piles shall be installed by a piling contractor qualified to install the type of pile specifications used, in accordance with the plans and specifications. 1.2 The pile contractor shall furnish and his prices shall include all necessary tools, equipment, material, labor and supervision to install and cut off the piles in accordance with the plans and specifications. 1.3 The general contractor shall provide: all necessary excavation, sheeting and bracing or other adequate maintenance of excavation banks; suitable runways and ramps as necessary for pile driving; control of ground and surface water as necessary to keep the work area sufficiently dry; suitable access roads for movement of equipment and materials to and from pile locat1ons; field layout required for pile work including setting and maintaining a location stake for each pile and giving cut-off grades on all piles ; and removal of all overhead and underground obstructions as required. 1.4 Except for operations, equipment and personnel directly under the control of the pile contractor, the general contractor shall be responsible for complying with the requirements of all Federal and State safety and health regulations applicable to this work. 1.5 The results of test borings made at the site are shown on the drawmgs. Soil samples recovered are available for ins pection. This information is to be considered as indicalfve of subsoil conditions and is made available to the contractors to use at their discretion. Contractors may make their own subsurface investigation at the site. 1.6 Each pile shall consist of a steel shell driven in intimate contact II with the soil, using an internal non-mechanical steel mandrel. The mandrel shall be withdrawn leaving the steel shell in place . The steel shell shall be filled with concrete as specified herein. 2. PILE SHELLS 2.1 Pile shells shall be step-tapered with a tip diameter of _ _ inches. The increase in diameter at each step shall be not greater than one inch. 2.2 The lower one-third of the pile shell shall be minimum No. 14 gage (0.075 inches) and the pile contractor shall assume responsibility for providing shells of sufficient strength and thickness to withstand driving to the required penetration and to resist harmful distortions due to soil pressures. 2.3 Step -Taper shells shall be closed at the point with a flat steel plate having a diameter not more than 3/• inch greater than the diameter of the shell to which the plate is attached. The plate thickness shall be 1/• inch. The driving mandrel shall extend the lull length of the pile. 3. PILE CONCRETE 3.1 Concrete fill for the piles shall have a 28 day strength of not less than __ psi and shall be composed of approved Portland cement, clean, sharp sand and gravel or crushed stone having a 3/• inch maximum size. Concrete shall have a slump of 4 to 6 inches. The Pile Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval, a mix design developed from the results of having broken 3 and 7 -day tests on standard cylinders all as per applicable current ASTM standards. 3.2 No concrete shall be placed until the pile shell has been inspected and is free of all foreign matter and contains no more than 4 inches of water. 3.3 Concrete shall be poured into the shell at the top through a steep-sided funnel having a discharge opening of not more than 10 inches in diameter. Concrete in the top six feet of the pile shall be rodded . 4. PILE INSTALLATION 4.1 The Pile Contractor shall have performed by a competent Eng ineer a Wave- Equation Analysis of the pile-hammer-soil system which is proposed . The Wave - Equation solution shall determine the Ultimate Pile Compressive capacity as a function of driving resistance, and the maximum compressive and tensile stresses in the mandrel as the pile reaches final anticipated penetration . These solutions shall be submitted to the Engineer prior to commencement of pile driving. 4.2 The pile shall be driven to at least the resistance indicated by the Wave-Equation Analysis for an Ultimate Load of 200% of the design load of __ tons. However, if the pile does not conform to the settlement criteria set forth in the section of specifications entitled "Load Tests", then the pile shall be driven to such greater resistance as may be required. 4.3 The piles shall be driven with a steam, air, hydraulic or diesel hammer having a rated energy of not less than footpounds per blow. 4.4 All piles shall be driven with a hammer operating in fixed leaders or other methods shall be used to hold the hammer and pile in accurate alignment. 4.5 All piles shall be cut-off to within one inch of the required pile butt elevation.
