III. POLYMER SLURRY PREPARATION / CHUN B DUNG DCH POLYMER
Polymers for drilling mud are products that can be used in powder form or in
liquid form. When dispersed into water, macromolecules chains of polymer are
hydrated to produce viscosity effect. The characteristics of polymer slurry are
specified in appendix 1.
Page 12

For all material interested to be used, a material safety data sheet will be
submitted together with the request of approval for material.This is a friendly material
with environment, encourage to using.
The polymer is delivered to site in 25kg unimpregnated bags which are stored
under cover. The polymer is mixed in tank with aerating pipeline and the slurry is
stored in silos or reservoirs until used during the excavation.
When the hole is full of polymer slurry, polymer has tendency to generate
membrance to prevent the trench from osmosis of the underground water because
the pressure of polymer slurry is higher than underground water pressure. Polymer
pressure makes a stable force to the side of the hole.

IV. TEST PILE EXCAVATION / THI CNG O CC TH.

1. General / Tng qut:
Barrette piles will be excavated by a rectangular grab, hung up to a crane,
operated by cable or hydraulic system of drilled by bucket. Bored piles will be bored
by a drilling-machine . During the excavation, the polymer slurry is kept around 0.4m
lower than the top level of guide wall and not less than 1.0m above the ground water
level. The verticality of the hole is monitored by visual checking of the crane cables
during successive lowering the grab into the hole.
Page 15

Besides the visual checking of crane cables, the contractor can also measure the
grab cable to check verticality of trench (applying for hydraulic crane and mechanic
crane). The distance between the cable and the internal sides of guide wall will be
measured, the interval is carried out every 5m after completion of one bite. The soil
sample is also taken every 2m.
The minimum distance between the excavation crane & the hole is 3.0m. Any
crane movement will be monitored to satisfy this requirement.

V. PLACING OF REINFORCEMENT / LP T LNG THP

Steel cages are pre-fabricated on site, and upon completion of polymer recycling,
the cage is lowered into the slurry trench by crawler crane.
The circular concrete spacers (grade is equivalent to test pile concrete garde) are
installed during installing the rebar cage to ensure the required cover of rebars.
The steel cage are generally composed of 11.7m long steel cage elements (or
longer) connected by steel screwed U-bolts the designed overlap length during
lowering down into the excavation hole or at the steel yard, based on the condition of
construction. Once all the steel cage are lowered, they are suspended to the
required level from the guide walls by measured suspension bars connected with the
calculated lengths in preparation for concreting. The Surveyor will check level of 4
points at top of steel cage to comply with the designed level.

The lifting and lowering rebar cage down to excavation hole is done as following
steps, using the two winches:
A spreader bar is connected to top of steel cage by cable, clamps, hanging
bars (pre-installed during rebar cage fabrication period) and lifted up by the
main hock of service crane.
A system of cable, clamps, pulleys are connected to the length of the cage at
dedicated hanging bars, and the cage is lifted up by the single cable of the
service crane in order to equilibrate the lifting up steel cage.
All this procedure will be clearly descriped in the different project lifting plan.

3. Casting concrete of test pile / btng cc th
Concrete is poured into the trench through tremie pipes. The tremie pipes are
D270mm and are made up of coupled sections 0.5m, 1m, 2m and 3m in length. The
tremie pipes are divided into these dimensions to reach the following requirements:
- Giving the convenience of pipes combination while pouring concrete, guarantee
the submerged length of pipe in concrete.
- Easily arranging in tremie rack, keep the site tidy.
- Guarantee the lifting activities on safety due to the suitable dimension.
The tremie is attached with funnel lead directly concrete to bottom of trench. The
mixed concrete is poured directly to funnel from trucks. Pouring concrete to funnel
side (not directly pour a line to the bottom), at the bottom of funnel, the polymer
Page 20

slurry and the concrete are kept in separate by spongy plug or cellulose plug in order
to prevent the concrete from impuring by polymer slurry.
As the level of concrete in the trench rises, the tremie pipe column is raised
whilst always ensuring a minimum 3m embedment into the concrete.

Mixed concrete with slump suits to tremie method is poured into funnel with a
slowly and steady line. In the progress, concrete level is continuously checked by
dropping reference. The results are showed on the monitoring chart includes depth
and volume. When necessary, some of the tremie pipe(s) will be cut to ensuring
tremie embedded into concrete 3m as least. By this way, the concrete will rise up
and replace polymer slurry in trench, and tremie embedment in the concrete control
will prevent the mixing of the polymer and concrete.
While casting concrete, a diary chart (time delivery, volume and level) is recorded
in the form has been approved by Owner and Consultant. The advantages of diary
chart are given the quantity prediction of concrete, preventing the high waste
material percenetage. In another hand, the diary chart also show the level where the
buldged concrete is existing, and it helps to estimate the equipment, material and
manpower for remedial work later. Test samples are taken to assess the strength of
concrete.

4. Grouting Record / Ghi nhn qu trnh pht va:
To achieve the required accuracy in recording the grout volume and pressure, an
automatic recorder, namely the SINNUS System, will be used. / t c nhng

dng c trn l ht thng SINNUS.
* The SINNUS System.
The SINNUS System is a fully electronic process, which can monitor the grouting
pumps. The grouting pressure is measured with an analog to numeric pressure
transducer, which has a measuring scale from 0 to 100 bars. The flow rate is
measured with an electromagnetic flow meter, which can measure any flow rate
(depending on the diameter of the grouting pipe). The instantaneous values
recorded by transducers and flow meter from each grouting line are transmited 100
times per second to the regulation box called Arc-SINNUS.

On the screen, each pump window displays the instantaneous values of volume,
pressure and flow rate. The real-time pressure and flow rate curves are also shown.
The operator uses the SINNUS system with the assistance of the computer to
Page 26

conduct the grout process in accordance with the pre-defined parameters (target
volume, target flow rate and limiting pressure) to ensure the best control of the
grouting works. Every value of volume, pressure and flow rate is recorded for
subsequent analysis.

Hereafter is the rules and sequence of grouting
1. The shaft grouting is to be carried out from the bottom sleeve to the top sleeve.
2. Main grouting pipes are 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8. Reserved compensation pipes are 2 and
6.
Sequence of grouting

- In case of grouting with 2 packer: Process commences at pipe no. 4 and no. 8 with
100% of target volume. Finishing pipe 1 and 5, grouting moves to pipe no. 3 and no. 7
- In case of grouting with 3 packer: Process commences at pipe no. 1, 4 and no. 8 with
100% of target volume then moves to pipe no. 3, 5 and no. 7
During grouting, if the pressure is more than 40bar the applying the rule in part D as
stated below COMPENSATION GROUT is applied. Reserved pipes 2 and 6 can be
used.

2. Rules of compensation grouting / Quy tc bm b
The target grout volume per manchette will be 35litres/m2 of the surface area of
the test pile. Should the a target grout volume not be achieved in a particular
manchette mentioned in Item 4.a, then the manchette below, above or to the side
shall be injected with additional grout, if necessary, so as to ensure that the
minimum average grout take over the shaft grout zone is greater than 25litres/m2.

The priority order is as following:

Try to come back to the below sleeve of the same pipe, if can not
Go up to the above sleeve of the same pipe (exclude the top sleeve).
At last, compensate to the side sleeve of next pipe at same level sleeves.
Compensate by pumping into reserved pipes 2 and 6 for barrette pile &
reserved pipes 2 and 6 for bored pile
