The piling industry has in recent years developed a variety of press-in piling technologies with a view to mitigate noise & vibration nuisance. This book focuses on the Walk-on-Pile type press-in piling system which offers an alternative engineering solution for piling works. This type of piling has unique features including the application of the compact piling machine using pre-installed piles as a source of reaction force to jack in a new pile by hydraulic pressure. Moreover the machine can walk along the top of piles already installed thus enabling piling in a limited space and headroom with minimum disruption to social functions and services of existing infrastructure. These features are opening up a new horizon in piling leading to novel application of embedded walls previously considered impossible. This introductory book provides a historical development of press-in piling and various challenging applications worldwide as well as scientific research outcomes forming a valuable source of reference for readers who are unfamiliar with press-in piling including project owners design engineers practical engineers as well as researchers and students. .
