Content concerning driven piles will be among the program highlights at DFI SuperPile '25, In Partnership with ADSC, an annual conference for which PDCA serves as a Cooperating Organization. The conference takes place June 18-20 at the Cleveland Hilton Downtown, in Cleveland, OH. Several PDCA members are involved in the program, as sponsors, exhibitors, presenters, attendees, committee participants, and more. Here is a quick reference to PDCA members who will have a function promoting driven piles at SuperPile '25.
On June 18, all DFI Technical Committees will meet at dedicated times throughout the day. Among those will be the Driven Pile Committee, which is co-chaired by Greg Canivan (S&ME) and Seth Hamblin (GTR). This group will assemble for one hour at 2:30 PM on Wednesday afternoon.
Moving to Thursday, June 19, Mohamad Hussein (GRL Engineers) will deliver the venerable Hal Hunt Lecture, which will take place at 2:15 PM. He will present Dynamic Testing Results Explained: From Basic to Advanced Analyses.
Then on Friday morning, a Parallel Session dedicated to Driven Piles will feature a presentation from Van Komurka, P.E., D.GE, F.ASCE, Life Member, (GRL Engineers) entitled Calculated Load-Transfer Responses from a Tensile Static Load Test on an Internally Instrumented Concrete-Filled Steel Pipe Pile. Later in the same Session, Gerry McShane (Service Steel Warehouse) will explain how Nothing Has Harmed the Driven Steel Pile More Than Resistivity.
Members from other PDCA companies, including Kiewit, Keller, Dan Brown Associates, Mueser Rutledge Consulting Engineers, GRL Engineers, and Pile Dynamics, Inc., will also be presenting on various subject matter during the course of SuperPile '25.
