  In order to predict the vibrationlevels caused by a Delmag D62, D80 or D100 diesel hammer, I am looking for data on the energy per blow. This should be given in Nm (Newtonmeter).

Thanks.

  Generally the energy transferred to the pile is about 35% of
the rated energy of the hammer (plus/minus about 10%) for
STEEL piles. For concrete piles, these energies should be
reduced by 10% (i.e. to average 25%).

Pile type (displacement or not), material type, and soil
profile would I think also enter into your evaluation.
