Driven Pile Committee
Pollyanna Cunningham, MBA, Chair
A group of professionals supporting and understanding the deep foundation industry while promoting all driven pile foundation solutions. This DFI committee is responsible for the Driven Pile Workshops, Educational Programing and Web Seminars throughout the world. These professionals have collaborated to produce the Inspector's Guide to Driven Foundation Piling, Driven Foundation Piling Catalogs, and Driven Sheet Piling. Currently, this group is producing a vibration study database to support the use and benefit of vibratory pile drivers, an electronic library supporting cost savings in driven pile foundations and mid-sized diameter pipe plugging study.
