Abstract
Two offshore piles of 1000 mm diameter with 1 m socketing into rock in 15 m water depth have failed during construction. The analysis of failure considering wave and current forces, structural and foundation capacities and vibration measurement on freshly concreted and well set piles is discussed.

Failure of Offshore Concrete Piles During Construction
St. Louis, Missouri
Two offshore piles of 1000 mm diameter with 1 m socketing into rock in 15 m water depth have failed during construction. The analysis of failure considering wave and current forces, structural and foundation capacities and vibration measurement on freshly concreted and well set piles is discussed.
