DriveLog

A pile-driving record, one entry per logged foot.

Usage

Source

DriveLog(
    pile,
    hammer,
    elevation,
    bpm,
    bpf,
    pile_id=None,
)

Attributes

pile: Pile

The pile that was driven.

hammer: Hammer

The hammer that drove it.

elevation: ndarray

Toe elevation at the end of each logged foot, ft.

bpm: ndarray

Hammer blows per minute.

bpf: ndarray

Blows per foot.

pile_id: (str, optional)
Identifier of the pile.

Attributes

Name Description
depth Depth below the first logged foot, ft.
stroke Hammer stroke (drop height) derived from the blow rate, ft.
valid Boolean mask of feet with finite elevation, blow rate and blow count.

depth

Depth below the first logged foot, ft.

depth: np.ndarray

stroke

Hammer stroke (drop height) derived from the blow rate, ft.

stroke: np.ndarray

valid

Boolean mask of feet with finite elevation, blow rate and blow count.

valid: np.ndarray

Methods

Name Description
from_arrays() Build a log from per-foot arrays.
from_csv() Read a log from a delimited text file.

from_arrays()

Build a log from per-foot arrays.

Usage

Source

from_arrays(
    pile,
    hammer,
    *,
    bpf,
    bpm=None,
    stroke=None,
    elevation=None,
    depth=None,
    tip_elevation=None,
    forward_fill=False,
    pile_id=None,
)

Parameters

pile: Pile

The pile that was driven.

hammer: Hammer

The hammer that drove it.

bpf: array_like

Blows per foot. Non-numeric entries become NaN.

bpm: array_like = None

Hammer blows per minute. Non-numeric entries become NaN.

stroke: array_like = None

Hammer stroke, ft, for a log that records the stroke instead of the blow rate; converted to bpm with stroke_to_bpm. Exactly one of bpm and stroke must be given.

elevation: array_like = None

Toe elevation at the end of each foot, ft.

depth: array_like and float = None

Depth of each foot (ft) and the final toe elevation (ft), used instead of elevation. The elevation of each foot is tip_elevation + depth[-1] - depth after trimming.

tip_elevation: array_like and float = None

Depth of each foot (ft) and the final toe elevation (ft), used instead of elevation. The elevation of each foot is tip_elevation + depth[-1] - depth after trimming.

forward_fill: bool = False
Carry the last recorded blow rate (or stroke) forward over unrecorded feet.

Returns

DriveLog
The log trimmed to the span from the first to the last foot where both the blow rate and the blow count are recorded.

from_csv()

Read a log from a delimited text file.

Usage

Source

from_csv(
    path,
    pile,
    hammer,
    *,
    bpf,
    bpm=None,
    stroke=None,
    elevation=None,
    depth=None,
    tip_elevation=None,
    skiprows=0,
    delimiter=",",
    forward_fill=False,
    pile_id=None,
)

Parameters

path: str or Path

File to read.

pile: Pile

The pile that was driven.

hammer: Hammer

The hammer that drove it.

bpf: str or int

Column holding each quantity, by header name or zero-based index. Exactly one of bpm/stroke and one of elevation/depth must be given.

bpm: str or int

Column holding each quantity, by header name or zero-based index. Exactly one of bpm/stroke and one of elevation/depth must be given.

stroke: str or int

Column holding each quantity, by header name or zero-based index. Exactly one of bpm/stroke and one of elevation/depth must be given.

elevation: str or int

Column holding each quantity, by header name or zero-based index. Exactly one of bpm/stroke and one of elevation/depth must be given.

depth: str or int

Column holding each quantity, by header name or zero-based index. Exactly one of bpm/stroke and one of elevation/depth must be given.

tip_elevation: float = None

Final toe elevation, ft; required with depth.

skiprows: int = 0

Lines to skip before the data (or before the header row when columns are named).

delimiter: str = ","

Field delimiter.

forward_fill: bool = False

See from_arrays.

pile_id: str = None
Identifier of the pile.

Returns
