You might look into a tripod mounted auger to pre drill and then place pile. Pneumatic auger is hand operated, limiting disturbance to only the immediate area of work. Annullus is filled with pea stone or similiar material. Try a single pile type of bent to limit disturbance.
I have to calculate the lateral loads along a timber pile and the contributing horizontal member due to wave loading.
Pile bent (two 12" piles 4' apart) spacing is 15', 3x12 horizontal member, water depth is 12', pile height is 18', 3x12 horizontal memeber is 3' down from top.

I need to calculate the wave load on a horizontal 3x12 stringer. Pile bent spacing is 15', water depth is 12.5', pile height is 18' and the middle of the stringer is 3.5' below the top of pile. This project is a residential pier extending approximately 200' from the coastline in Rhode Island...
