54. T PILE DATA REVIEW MANUAL REVISION 4 0 Interpretation Examples A measured shift in the reported static pre load value if detected is a composite of three potential sources 1 Residual compressive stresses 2 Compromised or relaxed pre stress tension 3 Anyunsettled dynamic wave propagation error The system software accounts for the third as described below with any resultant reported measurement shift being a summation of the remaining two The specific error condition being monitored for is a relaxation of the static compressive pre load To help prevent large negative reported pre load delta values the SmartPile algorithm takes a baseline measurement at the beginning of a blow at the pile tip and determines if any residual negative movement was present and detected at the end of the previous blow Any reported delta measurement is then adjusted accordingly For this very reason stepping through blows backwards vs forwards in SmartPile Review will affect the reported pre load delta values and must be avoided Before acting on large negative reported static pre load delta shifts move to the Raw Data analysis tab and look for unsettled wave propagation on the tip strain at the end of recorded blows Check and confirm that the dynamic strain events have settled out as it is easier to assess reported conditions when all dynamic events have settled out to zero by the end of the blow In softer driving which is common during the initi
