1、Designation: D 25 99 (Reapproved 2005)Standard Specification forRound Timber Piles1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 25; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in par

2、entheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the physical characteristics ofunused ro

3、und timber piles to be used either treated or un-treated.1.2 This specification is not intended for preused pilesunless the piles have the quality specified by this specificationand design stresses equal to or greater than those derived fromMethod D 2899.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are

4、 to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility

5、of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

6、thod for Establishing Design Stresses for RoundTimber Piles3. Species of Wood3.1 Piles shall be of any species of wood for which clearwood strength values are given in Test Methods D 2555.4. Classification4.1 Timber piles are commonly used to transfer structuralloads to sub surface soil bearing stra

7、ta by way of friction or tipend bearing forces, or both.4.2 Method D 2899 provides a basis for specifying the pilesize. This standard gives a procedure for estimating the designstress at any location along the pile length. As design stressmust always exceed that imposed under service conditions, the

8、quotient of the structural loads divided by the design stressgives an estimate of the minimum section property required atany location.4.3 Under this specification, pile size requirements esti-mated at a critical location are extrapolated to either the tip orbutt end assuming a linear taper. For thi

9、s specification, piles areclassified by nominal circumference and length.5. Quality Requirement (All Piles)5.1 Piles shall be of sound wood, free of decay, insectattack, marine borer attack, and Limnoria damage, except asherein allowed in 13.2 and 14.1.5.2 Piles shall be cut above the ground swell a

10、nd have ataper from butt to tip.5.3 Piles shall have an average rate of growth measured inthe outer 50 % of the radius at the pile tip of not less than 6rings per inch and shall have an average summerwood contentof not less than 33.3 % in the outer 50 % of the tip radius.Exception: Piles with less t

11、han 6 rings per inch are acceptableif the average is 50 % or more summerwood present in theouter 50 % of the pile tip radius.5.4 Piles that cannot be adequately inspected for the physi-cal requirements specified in this specification due to adheringbarnacles or other material shall not be permitted.

12、6. Lengths6.1 All piles shall be furnished in lengths specified, exceptthat tolerances shall be allowed as follows:6.1.1 Piles 40 ft (12.2 m) and shorterplus 1 ft (0.3 m),minus 6 in. (152 mm).6.1.2 Piles 41 ft (12.5 m) or longerplus 2 ft (0.6 m), minus6 in. (152 mm).7. Sizes7.1 Pile sizes are specif

13、ied according to nominal circumfer-ence 3 ft from the butt or at the tip. Tables are provided inAppendix X1.1 to facilitate the selection of pile dimensions.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D07 on Woodand is under the jurisdiction of Subcommittee D07.04 on Pole and Pil

(203 mm).7.5 Circumferences given in Table X1.4 and Table X1.2 areminimum values. No more than 10 % of piles in any sh

17、ipmentshall have tip circumferences less than the tabulated values. Ofthose that are below tabulated values, none shall vary fromtabulated values by more than 2 in. (51 mm).8. Sapwood8.1 Wood piles for preservative treatment shall have suffi-cient sapwood to meet minimum penetration requirements.9.

18、Cutting and Trimming9.1 Butts and tips of piles shall be sawed square with theaxis of the piles and shall not be out of square by more than110in./in. (100 mm/m) of diameter.9.2 All knots and limbs shall be cut flush with the surface ofthe pile, except that knots may be hand-trimmed flush with thesur

19、face of the swell surrounding the knot.10. Peeling (Shaving)10.1 Piles are classified according to the extent of barkremoval as clean-peeled, rough-peeled, or unpeeled.10.1.1 Clean-peeled piles require the removal of all outerbark. In addition, at least 80 % of the inner bark, well-distributed over

20、the surface of the pile, shall be removed. Pilesfor preservative treatment shall have no strip of inner barklarger than 1 by 6 in. (25 by 152 mm).10.1.2 Rough-peeled piles require the complete removal ofall outer bark.10.1.3 Unpeeled piles require no bark removal.11. Straightness11.1 A straight line

21、 from the center of the butt to the centerof the tip shall lie entirely within the body of the pile.11.2 Piles shall be free from short crooks that deviate morethan 212 in. (64 mm) from straightness in any 5-ft (1.5-m)length (see Fig. 1).12. Twist of Grain12.1 Spiral grain shall not exceed 180 deg o

22、f twist whenmeasured over any 20-ft (6.1-m) section of the pile.13. Knots13.1 Sound knots shall be no larger than one sixth thecircumference of the pile located where the knot occurs.Cluster knots shall be considered as a single knot, and theentire cluster cannot be greater in size than permitted fo

23、r asingle knot. The sum of knot diameters in any 1-ft (304-mm)length of pile shall not exceed one third of the circumferenceat the point where they occur. Knots shall be measured inaccordance with Terminology D9, and at a right angle to thelength of the pile.13.2 Piles may have unsound knots not exc

24、eeding half thepermitted size of a sound knot, provided that the unsoundnessextends to not more than a 112-in. (38-mm) depth, and that theadjacent areas of the trunk are not affected.14. Holes and Scars14.1 Holes less than12 in. (12.7 mm) in average diametershall be permitted in the external tangent

(38 mm) and provided that the holes are not caused bydecay, marine borer attack, or Limnoria damage.14.2 Internal holes or damage to the cross-section (bearing)

27、surfaces caused by decay, marine borers (shipworms orpholads), or insects are not permitted.14.3 Piles having sound turpentine scars undamaged byinsects shall be permitted.15. Checks, Shakes, and Splits15.1 A check shall not extend any deeper than to the pith.There shall not be any two or more check

29、of shakes inthe outer one half of the radius of the butt of the pile, whenmeasured along the curve of the annual ring, shall not exceedone third of the circumference of the butt of the pile. A shakeis defined as a circumferential separation of the rings of normalgrowth.15.3 Splits shall not be longe

30、r than the butt diameter. A splitis defined as a lengthwise separation of the wood across therings of normal growth, extending from one surface throughthe piece to the opposite surface.16.

31、ile classification systems have evolved alongwith Specification D 25 since its adoption in 1937. The originalversion of the standard referenced three pile Classes (A, B andC). These classes targeted different end uses: “A” was desig-nated for use in railway trestles and bridges,“ B” was for use indo

32、cks, wharves and highway work and “C” was for use insubmerged foundations, cofferdams falsework and temporarystructures. The main difference between classesAand B was inthe size cap they would support (minimum of 14 in. for classAand 12 in. for class B). Class C was of lower quality. In 1970the 3-Cl

33、ass system table of sizes was replaced with two tablesgiving common round timber dimensions arranged to facilitatethe selection of piles according to a required minimum buttdimension (friction piles) or a required minimum tip dimension(end-bearing piles). In 1991, the two table system was replacedwi

34、th four tables, reflecting the difference in shape of southernpine piles and Class A and B were referenced in a footnote tothe required minimum butt tables.X1.1.1 In 1998, it was voted to place greater emphasis onclass A and B pile sizes and add an “eight inch tip, naturaltaper” classification. The

35、class A and B sizes shown in TableX1.1 are the same as those presented in the original 1937edition of Specification D 25. The “8 inch tip” class adopted byNew York City in the 1960s is a replacement for class C andapplies for piles up to 40 ft in length.X1.2 Tables X1.2-X1.5 provide options for majo

36、r pilespecies specified according to either a minimum nominal buttor a minimum nominal tip circumference. When the buttcircumference is specified, the tip circumference shall not beless than that shown in Tables X1.2 and X1.3. When the topcircumference is specified, the butt circumference shall not

37、beless than that shown in Tables X1.4 and X1.5. The differencesbetween Tables X1.2 and X1.3 and Tables X1.4 and X1.5reflect the difference between southern pine and the predomi-nate west coast species. Southern pine generally has a lineartaper of roughly 0.2 in./ft from the butt to the tip. Thepredo

38、minant west coast pile species exhibit a smaller taperbelow 20 ft from the butt, giving them larger tips for a givenbutt size.TABLE X1.1 Specified Minimum Butt and Tip Sizes for Class Aand Class B PilesLength (ft)Pile Circumference (in.)Diameter (in.) given in bracketsClass A Class BA8in.tip3 ft fro
