Driven Pile Committee
Ben Vance, P.E., Chair
A roster of over 20 industry-wide professionals comprises this committee involved in the support and understanding of driven pile foundation systems. The committee is responsible for the Driven Pile Workshop Series and Driven Pile Seminars throughout the world. The committee has produced the Inspector's Guide to Driven Foundation Piling, Driven Foundation Piling: A catalog of available sections by type, and Driven Sheet Piling: A catalog of available sections by type. A Model Specification is forthcoming.
