The first leg piles of the Heather Platform were instrumented using strain transducers and accelerometers that were attached to the pile just below its top. The signals were processed in real time providing for a hammer blow a printed output of hammer energy in the pile, maximum pile top force and other quantities. The signals were also recorded on analog magnetic tape. A detailed analysis was performed in the laboratory on a digital computer. Using wave equation type pile and soil models and both force distribution was determined. The Heather Platform piles were driven through two followers connected by gravity. Stress wave effects from the connectors were studied and losses to the impact wave were determined. (Kursetz)
