Abstract
Dynamic properties of the drilled shaft foundations supporting Doremus Avenue Bridge were determined by forced vibration testing. The main two objectives of the substructure testing at Doremus Avenue Bridge were: (1) site evaluation with respect to the dynamic soil properties, and, (2) shaft evaluation for the purpose of definition of their dynamic stiffness. The site characterization entailed crosshole testing for the purpose of evaluation of the dynamic properties of soil such as shear wave velocity and shear modulus profile. The drilled shaft impedance evaluation was done through forced excitation using an electromagnetic shaker. The responses of the tested shaft, as well as the response of adjacent shafts, were measured for the purpose of evaluation of the shaft interaction. To gain a better insight into the shaft dynamics, one of the shafts was instrumented with five triaxial geophones distributed along the full length of the shaft. The scope and results of the site characterization, shaft impedance and shaft interaction evaluation are presented and discussed in this research.
