Pile Cap Connection

[hannis]

Hi All,

I'm looking for help on the required connection between circular driven piles and the precast concrete pile caps that will sit on them. The structure is for a marine jetty taking mooring loads so the connection will need to resist shear loads and uplift. Would I treat it the same as a road deck whereby the pile would have say a pile diameter socket length in the cap and the cap would be grouted on to the pile via a tube and riser. But for marine works it must need someting more in terms of a shear connection.

Thanks

Hannis
