SuperPile 2023

The technical committees of DFI and ADSC combined their industry expertise to organize SuperPile ’23. This three-day conference includes presentations on the latest developments in:

• Driven piles
• Augered cast-in-place/drilled displacement piles
• Micropiles
• Marine foundations
• Testing and evaluation of foundation systems
• Seismic and lateral loads
• Drilled shafts
• Ground improvement (related to piling)
• Helical piles and tiebacks

Presentations will showcase “super” innovations, challenges of designing and constructing CFA piles, and current trends in deep foundations. Program highlights include a keynote presentation on Georgia geology and deep foundation history, DFI's Osterberg Memorial Lecture, and a panel discussion titled “Is the Industry Moving to Electric Powered Construction Equipment?”.

On Wednesday, June 7, DFI committees will meet in the afternoon to discuss progress on various committee projects and in the evening from 6:00-8:00 p.m. the men and women of the Women in Deep Foundations Committee will host a not-to-be-missed networking reception at Skyline North on the 10th floor of the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. 

On Thursday, June 8, plenary sessions will present a variety of technical topics featuring one panel discussion, keynote and invited speakers as well as the annual Osterberg Memorial Lecture.

Two parallel session tracks on Friday, June 9, will provide attendees the option to choose presentations of interest. Invited and selected presentations will highlight advancements, innovations and challenges in design and construction of deep foundations, particularly related to piling solutions.
