53 important component of design and testing. The large size and high required test loads can make measuring the full setup of an LDOEP difficult and expensive; therefore, the full potential for setup is not known.

54 LDOEPs is increasing. Even with the general lack of confidence, most agencies apply high-strain dynamic testing to verify axial resistance as well as to establish hammer operating procedures to minimize the risk of pile damage.
