I have a perfect application for Driven (Vibrated) Soldier pile application for 15' deep excavation project. However, the Geotechnical engineer is not familiar with this type of application. My plan is to utilize ABI Mobilram type rig to drive (Vibrate) soldier piles. Please give me your experience and thoughts on how to convince the Geotechnical engineer and the Owner for driven installation method. If you can also give me some literature to support our case that would be helpful. I would like to thank all the contributors in advance and looking forward for good discussion as well..
