Generally as the pile is driven, more and more blows are required to produce 1 in. of penetration. About 10 blows per inch is considered the refusal. The set in such a case is 1/10 in. The value of the set is used to check the bearing power of a pile in pile-driving formulas, such as the Engineering News formula published in all American civil engineering textbooks and handbooks concerned with this field. 6, record 1, English, - pile%20formula
