In order to supply drinking water to the northern area of Buenos Aires, AySA, the local water and sewer public company, awarded the contract to build the North Potable Water Treatment System to the joint venture Aguas del Paraná. The project comprises a fluvial water intake on the Paraná de las Palmas river, a 15 km long tunnel, a water treatment plant and 48 km distribution pipelines. The main structures of the plant were founded on precast piles driven to dense silty sands and sands. A thorough analysis was carried out in order to develop a systematic approach for assessing pile capacity at given depths, acceptability of pile hammers and overall acceptance criteria. This paper contains the description of the analysis carried out to support this work, the comparison between the static and dynamic load tests, and the evaluation of the setup based on CAPWAP analysis of the results obtained from the pile driving analyzer (PDA) system.
