Abstract: A pile driver assembly consisting of a plurality of pile driver units interconnected together to a rigid base frame that uses the push and pull method to drive a group of raked piles. The pile driver units progressively push one pile at a time for a short distance into the ground while being pull down by the rest of the stationary driven piles in a repeated cyclical driving sequence until the required pile driving force is reached for every pile in the group. The pile driver assembly consists a plurality of interconnected pile driver units, a pile driver base adaptor, a pile clamping system and strong base frame to drive the piles in a two dimensional array of variously raked pile group from 1V:1H to true vertical in the z-axis and rotated to any angle in the x-y plane at a minimum pile's spacing of three times the pile's diameter.

Abstract: An article for joining concrete piles having an annular plate mounted at one end of the pile, a central opening, a front surface an obverse surface and an interlocking profile having a plurality of first and second complementary configurations. Each configuration is defined in a substantially equalized sector and arranged radially in an alternate fashion on the front surface, the first configuration is a protrusion and the second configuration is a recess, wherein the lateral edges of each protrusion carries a horizontally extending groove. When mating of two identical articles, each mounted at the ends of two separate piles, the protrusions of one article mate with the recesses of another article forming of a passageway by two adjacently positioned grooves of two contiguous protrusions of the mated articles, the passageway allows interlocking of the mated articles by inserting a pin there through.

Abstract: A pile clamp assembly to clamp a pile that consists of the following main components; top pile clamp device, the bottom pile clamp device, a plurality clamp wedges and a plurality vertical hydraulic clamps which combines to make a flat clamp wedge contact with the surface of a deviated and twisted pile. This clamping mechanism reduces bending in the driven pile by enabling the next adjoining pile to conform as much as possible to the alignment of the existing driven pile and gradually corrects the pile's vertical alignment and twist as it penetrates the ground through interactions of the unique swiveling clamp wedges.

Abstract: A panel connector for interconnecting adjacent panels, wherein the panels have one or more flanges each having an edge. The connector comprises a portion of sheet material arranged to extend from the edge of the panel with a curved profile having an inner end adjacent the edge of the panel and an outer end. In transverse cross section, the curved profile includes a first portion extending from the inner end in a generally elliptical path and a second portion extending from the first portion to the outer end. The second portion curves inwardly from the generally elliptical path and the curved profile of the connector curves through at least 360 degrees. The second portion defines an opening between the inner end and the outer end to receive a portion of a further connector on an adjacent panel of the same shape.

Abstract: There is disclosed an underpinning pile to provide an efficient, simple and sure method in driving and lifting the foundation and at the same time securing the direct transference of preload without further loss of preload from the building into the newly completed driven pile. A pile anchor head (11) is provided that receives a pile (12) and is provided with a lifting means (13). The pile anchor head (11) and lifting means (13) receive the building load and transfers it to the pile (12), which allows practically any kind of material and shape of pile (12) to be used.
