About this document

PDA Testing Advances in 2008 by Livian Teddy is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes the evolution of pile driving analysis (PDA) testing from 1980 to 2008. It describes how early PDA systems involved complex equipment that tested the tester as much as the pile, but technology has since advanced greatly. Modern PDA field equipment and analysis software are now much more user-friendly and automated. Testing can be done with minimal disruptions on construction sites. Additional applications have been developed beyond the original dynamic load testing of piles.
