Abstract
![CDATA[The rapid increase in construction activities in past few decades has made the land a scarce resource. Thus, many new construction projects in urban environment are carried out in the vicinity of existing buildings. The construction induced vibrations can inflict significant forces on the substructures of adjacent buildings. This paper investigates the effect of vibratory pile driving on far field of the driven pile. First, the effectiveness of wave transmitting boundaries used to truncate the finite element mesh in the dynamic finite element modelling is studied. Pile installation is simulated from the ground surface and the finite element model is verified using the field data available in the literature. Then, the same model is used for a dynamic analysis with wave transmitting boundaries to study the ground vibration propagation around a driven pile.]]
