ICE Product Catalog 2024

√

R u = Ultimate pile bearing (tons) E = Rated hammer energy in ft-lbs, or (ram weight × stroke) if lower fuel setting N = Blow count per 1 in

This chart is based on the FHWA modified version of the Gates

Formula for pile bearing and is provided as a convenience only

for those applications where this formula is specified. ICE® has no preference for this particular formula over any other. Where:

CAUTION: Driving at ten blows per inch is considered practical refusal. Driving in excess of ten

blows per inch for more than six inches of driving or driving in

excess of 20 blows per inch at all is considered improper use and will void the hammer warranty.

NOTE: The FHWA recommends using a factor for safety of 3.5 with the Gates formula.
