The FHWA Micropile Design and Construction Guidelines (FHWA-SA-97-070) is available online for free from the FHWA Geotechnical Engineering Library and contains design examples and discussion of construction methods. That is probably the best free source of information that would include actual examples. You can find it at the link below:

I have some design examples comparing Service Load Design to LRFD in a presentation (LRFD for Micropiles) I have on Scribd but it is not a general design example per se. You can find that at the link below:
