“…Therefore, the friction coefficient reduction by adopting a steel pile rather than a concrete pile induced attenuation of ground vibrations. The pile-soil friction coefficient was taken as 0.35 in this paper, according to [15,16,48].…”

A pile foundation is commonly adopted for transferring superstructure loads into the ground in weaker soil. They diminish the settlement of the infrastructure and augment the soil-bearing capacity. This paper emphases the pile-driving effect on an existing adjacent cylindrical and semi-tapered pile. Driving a three-dimensional pile into the ground is fruitfully accomplished by combining the arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) adaptive mesh and element deletion methods without adopting any assumptions that would simplify the simulation. Axial forces, bending moment, and lateral displacement were studied in the neighboring already-installed pile. An investigation was made into some factors affecting the forces and bending moment, such as pile spacing and the shape of the already-installed pile (cylindrical, tapered, or semi-tapered). An important response was observed in the impact of the driven pile on the nearby existing one, the bending moment and axial forces were not negligible, and when the pile was loaded, it was recommended to consider the coupling effect. Moreover, the adjacent semi-tapered pile was subjected to less axial and lateral movement than the cylindrical one with the same length and volume for taper angles smaller than 1.0°, and vice versa for taper angles greater than 1.4°.

“…The boundary element was proposed by [47] to capture the soil behavior. Other papers used artificial boundaries to absorb the wave deriving from the driven pile [15,16,48,52]. A regular augmentation of the damping was adopted for absorbing the wave and its limited the errors before model verification [53].…”

“…This type of vibration is assessed on the basis of weighted RMS (root mean square) acceleration values. Impulsive vibration also called transient vibration is a vibration that rapidly reaches to the peak value and subjected to resistance due to a damping effect that may involve several cycles of vibration [12]. Intermittent vibration can be defined as continuous vibration that varies significantly in magnitude due to disturbance [13].…”

In the recent years, the level and nature of the ground vibrations has been more concerned in worldwide. Vibration affected on surrounding building is often associated with the vibration from the ground that is mainly caused by internal and external sources. One of the external sources is construction activities. Identify the effects of vibration caused by piling works in construction sites was the purpose of this paper. It is also aiming to determine the vibration criteria due to piling works in Klang Valley construction site. In addition, the objective of this study is to compare the level of vibration with Department of Environment (DOE) guideline between both Kajang MRT and Klang Valley MRT construction sites. The data used for this study is obtained from past researchers and field testing is performed by using Polytec Laser Doppler Vibrometer and Rion VM-55. The data has been analyzed by using ModalV of MATLAB software. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the vibration amplitude for three distance includes 5m, 10m and 20m are located above the ISO level which stated that the area within the distances not suitable for placement of sensitive equipment. The highest value of root mean square velocity is occurred in the distance of 5m and the reading is 80000 µm/s. According to Department of Environment (DOE) guidelines, the vibration at distance of 1m and 3m at Kajang MRT will cause major damage to surrounding buildings while minor damage was produced by the vibration at 5m, 10m and 20m distance from bored piling point which located around the area of Klang Valley MRT.
