Pre-formed concrete piles will be used that are 200mm x 200mm in cross-section. Starter piles will be 6 meters long and extension piles will be 3 or 6 meters long. The estimated pile penetration depth is 14 meters. Random load tests will be conducted on pile groups of 3 piles, 2 piles, and single piles to twice the working load of 45 tonnes per pile. A taking-off list outlines items needed for the piling works including initial piles, pile extensions, cut off pile heads, load tests, and bringing in plant equipment.
