My Construction Photos > Construction pile driving: Vulcan 505 25,000 ft-lb 60 inch stroke single-acting air-driven air/steam hammer drives structural steel H piles into the ground. Piles are supported and guided by swinging leads which are supported by Manitowoc 2900WC crawler mounted open web boom cable operated crane. Delonis Shelter, Ann Arbor, 2003.

My Construction Photos > Construction pile driving: Vulcan 505 25,000 ft-lb 60 inch stroke single-acting air-driven air/steam hammer drives structural steel H pile into the ground. The ram, marked "505", is attached to the piston of the cylinder at the top of the figure. On each cycle, the cylinder raises the piston and ram to the top of the cylinder with compressed air received through the vertical compressed air hose to the left of ram. When the piston reaches the top of the cylinder (left figure), the piston and ram are released and drops/falls by gravity to impact the top of the pile (right figure), through a pile cap that protects the top of the H pile below it. Piles and hammer are supported and guided by swinging leads, which are supported by the crane boom and cable. Delonis Shelter, Ann Arbor, 2003.
My Construction Photos > Construction pile driving: Vulcan single-acting air-driven hammer drives structural steel H piles into the ground. Previously driven pile is seen to this side of pile driving position, labeled "687". H piles to be driven are to the left. Compressed air hose to power the pile hammer is shown in foreground and going up to hammer. Piles are supported and guided by swinging leads which are supported by Manitowoc 2900WC crawler mounted open web boom cable operated crane. Delonis Shelter, Ann Arbor, 2003.
