Bored Pile Procedure

1. Set up the location of Bored Pile

Bored Pile Procedure

We use Total Station instrument to survey each

pile point.

2. Insert casing
casing must be stand vertical
( by checking verticality of casing
when insert casing )

Bored Pile Procedure

use Vibrodriver or Vibrohamer to insert casing

4. Removing slime
when finish drilling , we use Mechanical
pump equipment to remove slime .

5. KODEN Test
KODEN test utilizes the principle of ultrasonic wave travel from sensor to the wall of
drilled hole and reflect to the sensor through the bentonite slurry.
Equipment
KODEN equipment consists of two parts, recorder unit and winch unit .

Recorder Unit

Winch Unit

Bored Pile Procedure

Recorder unit controls the operation and record the test result. On the other
hand, winch unit lowers the probe (sensor) down the hole for ultrasonic
reflection .
Testing Procedure
1. Remove any obstacle around the hole area in order that the test equipment can
access to the hole .
2. Place the winch unit over the top of drilled hole or on the steel casing.
Position the sensor (probe) at the center of the hole .
3. Lower the sensor into bentonite slurry. Hold the sensor at depth
approximately 1 to 1.5m .
4. Restore the sensor to the starting position and perform the test.

Test Result
Test results are presented in graphical plot and show characteristics below :
1. Profile along two perpendicular axes.
2. Average verticality of the hole.
3. Location or depth where abnormality
Occurs such as reduction in diameter,
or collapsed wall of the hole.
4. Depth of drilled hole.

7. Insert Tremie

Bored Pile Procedure

Type of tremie pipe :

2m Length

1m Length

3m Length

we have 3 types of tremie : 1m, 2m and 3m Length

Bored Pile Procedure

How to insert tremie pipe :
1.
2.
3.

Use mobile crane to hang the hopper

Then connect each tremie pipe
After that put it into the bored pile hole
until bottom

When we pour concrete, we have to bury

the tremie pipe into concrete as below :

3 to 3.5m

1800

2 to 2.5m

8. Pouring the concrete

Quality of Concrete :
Max. size of Aggregate : 2.5cm
Workability : 55cm ( Flow )

Bored Pile Procedure

Strength of concrete :
Design strength : fck =300kg/cm ( 28days cure concrete )
Strength of mix ( Target Strength ) : according to the Standard Specifications of Concrete
( Korea Concrete Institute )
Material

Strength

Calculation of

fck ( Mpa )

Strength of mix ( Mpa )

Target Strength

21 > fck

fck + 7

( Standard specifications of concrete

)

21 fck 35

fck + 8.5

( Korea Concrete Institute )

fck > 35

fck + 10

Strength of mix ( Target Strength )

fck

300kg/cm = 29.42 Mpa

Strength of mix

29.42 Mpa + 8.5 Mpa = 37.92 Mpa = 389 kg/cm

Apply : 400 kg/cm
