On the last April SE-1 exam, I felt like there were a bunch of questions on piles. I didn't know much about them and would like to learn the basics. Can anyone point me to some basic resources on the subject? Also, pre-stressed concrete...without getting into the complexities of the subject, I need to learn the basics as it would pertain to the PE-exam. any resources you can suggest?

thanks

SERM has good no of examples on Prestressed concrete. To get some fundamental concept I would refer concrete text books like by Nilson or by Nawy. Both of these book has a chapter on prestressed concrete and sufficient for fundamental concept.

I believe Kaplan publication for civil engr.manual covers the pile topics. The book by Alan williams on Design of Concrete structure also has a topics on pile design.
