Engineering News Formula,
Q = W*h/ (s+c).
Where,
Q = Energy loss.
W = weight of the ram.
h = fall height of the ram (inches).
s = measured penetration of the pile per blow (inches).
c = 0.1.
Q = W*h/ (s+c).
Where,
Q = Energy loss.
W = weight of the ram.
h = fall height of the ram (inches).
s = measured penetration of the pile per blow (inches).
c = 0.1.
