• Slips, trips and falls
4.2 Bored Pile
4.2.1 Working Platforms and Ramps

a. The work areas shall consist of suitable granular/non-cohesive material, well compacted and constructed in a leveled
manner. The design of the working platform shall allow safe movements of and safe working conditions for 97-ton drilling
rig(s) and associated service equipment during all weather conditions.
b. In general top of any working, the platform should be at least 2.0 m above ground water level and inclination must not
exceed 1%. The inclination of access ramps shall not exceed 10%.
c. More specific information about the weights and pressures imposed by the drilling rig can be provided upon request. Once
the platform is completed and all plant is mobilized, a permit to dig will be issued by the main contractor prior to the
commencement of drilling any piles. The location of all utilities shall be confirmed and highlighted/identified both on the
permit and on the site. Any utilities that may be affected by our works that cannot be redirected, or removed, shall be
protected as required.
d. For safety reasons and to ensure an unimpeded sequence of work the entire piling platform has to be finalized and
handedover to Bauer prior to the commencement of piling operations.

4.2.2 Setting Out


a. The Contractor shall set out the bridge after clearing the site.
b. The center of individual pile locations will be set out accurately by a surveyor using suitable surveying techniques. The
pile center will be clearly marked using steel pins (or similar), approximately 15mm in diameter and long enough to be
stable in the ground.
c. All setting out and survey works shall be done in a timely manner, not obstructing the work sequence and progress.
Survey records/protocols shall be prepared by the surveyor and shall be in accordance with the approved shop drawing
d. The Contractor shall assume full responsibility for proper setting out, alignment, elevation and dimension of each and all
parts of the work.

4.2.3 Soil Drilling

a. Prior to the positioning of the drill rig the pile center will be backed up by 2-3 nos. steel reference pins 500mm equidistant
to the pile center parallel to the guide wall. The casing with 1000 mm diameter shall be installed to the pile center as
through the guide wall and the two reference points parallel to the guide wall. The operator of the BG rig will bring the
casing into the exact position with the help of these reference pins.
b. Before rotating the casing into the ground by the high torque of the rotary drive of the BG the mast and the casing shall
be adjusted to the vertical position. The mast inclination will be monitored via the onboard control system (B-Tronic) of
the drillrig.
c. The achievement of high precision in verticality requires for an accurate insertion of the starter casing. The starter is
guidance for the complete bore and therefore determines the overall pile verticality. For this reason, the verticality of the
starter casing will be checked for every 1m insertion of the casing in two perpendicular locations and adjusted in two
directions by means of the precise spirit level.
d. Depending on the soil conditions either a single wall casing with required length or a segmental starter casing will be
inserted into the ground. After this first insertion of the casing, excavation with appropriate drilling tools (e. g. auger or
bucket) is carried out until the excavation inside the casing has reached approximately 1.0 m above the lower end of the
starter casing, while casing will be concurrently inserted into the ground.
e. The progression of the casing is achieved via rotation and application of a pull-down force which is transferred via the
rotary drive or a hydraulic casing oscillator.
f. The cased drilling will be stopped once approx. 9.0 m of casing will be installed into the ground and drilling will be
continued below the casing with the drilling tool(s) only, i.e. uncased.
g. BAUER or equivalent drilling rigs are equipped with a telescopic Kelly bar where drilling tools are attached to it at the
lowerend. The tools are adapted to suit the ground conditions.
h. The excavation of materials inside the bore will be performed via a combined rotation of and the pull-down force applied
to the tool.
i. Once the tool will be filled with the material it will be withdrawn from the bore with the Kelly bar above ground where the
tool(s) will be emptied aside of the bore. If any cavities encountered, the borehole will be backfilled with lean concrete
prior to re-drilling. The drill spoil will be emptied directly on the working platform. From there the drill spoil has to be
loaded concurrently to the drilling by means of an excavator or wheel loader and removed from the site.
j. Bauer or equivalent Rigs are equipped with a built-in Inclinometer where the operator can see information about the
inclination of the boom immediately on a screen. This information allows the operator to immediately counteract borehole

deviations while boring operation.
k. The pile base of foundation piles shall be cleaned according to applicable Standards and the Technical Specifications of
the project. Several methods can be used to remove loose materials and sediments from the pile toe in order to achieve
aproper interface in between pile concrete and the subsoil, thus to mitigate later settlements of the foundation pile.
l. All boreholes are cleaned mechanically using a cleaning bucket with a cleaning edge. Cleaning buckets can be used in
dry and wet conditions. The cleaning bucket removes debris and fines from the pile base and fines. There will be no
boreholesleft uncovered/unprotected at any time. It will be covered by means of metal pile cover.

4.2.4 Installation of Rebar Cage

a. Shortly before the installation of the reinforcement cage, the depth of the pile bore shall be rechecked with a measuring
tape and connected drop weight.
b. After the borehole and the pile base are approved by the Client, the reinforcement cage will be lifted using lifting beam
and lowered into the borehole via crawler crane. The approval has to take place in a timely manner, not obstructing the
piling sequence or progress.
c. A reference site datum level will be given by the surveyor to ensure the correct positioning of the cage.
d. The reinforcement cage will be lowered down to the required level and the top of reinforcement will be installed withinthe
tolerances to the approved level at a maximum deviation of 0.15m (as per EN 1536). The correct elevation of the
reinforcement cage will be achieved via suspension of the cage to the casing.
e. In case of the reinforcement, cages are too long that it cannot be delivered on site in one piece and/or too long that it
cannot be lifted in a safe manner, several shorter cage sections are manufactured/delivered. These individual cage
sections are connected to a single cage by couplers. Commonly the upper cage section(s) are connected to the lower
cage section(s) right over the bore. In case the complete reinforcement cage is rigid enough to withstand the forces
applied while lifting, it might be decided to connect several single cage sections horizontally on the working platform.
f. Concrete spacers as detailed in the approved shop drawing shall be used at 3 m intervals and around the whole
perimeter of the cage, 5 nos. each level/layer to keep the reinforcement in the center of the borehole, and thus toensure
proper concrete cover at all locations. As the case may be spacers will be installed to the reinforcing cage concurrently
while lowering it down into the bore.
g. The cage will be trapped off at the top welded band. Once inside the bore the cage has no fall radius. The lifting chains
are then changed over to an open hook set and lowered into the bore so that the top of steel is positioned atthe correct
level.
h. Tremie pipes shall be installed centered into the pile bore to the pile toe. The tremie pipes shall be internally free of any
oldand hardened concrete to allow for a smooth concreting procedure. The tremie pipe will be inserted at the center of
the pile. The top of the tremie pipe will be connected to a concrete pump.O-rings have to be inserted to the joints of the
tremie pipes to ensure adequate water tightness and thus to avoid segregation of the concrete.

4.2.5 Concrete Pouring

a. The concrete mix proportions will be in accordance with the approved mix design. For this reason, delivery notes will be
checked for compliance to the mix design and for verification of the installed quantity into the pile bore. The concrete
properties and the installation will be monitored in accordance with the Inspection and test plan and to relevant standards.
b. Concrete will be delivered to site by mixer trucks and directly discharged into the tremie pipe through the concrete pump. It
shall be placed without interruption to prevent hardening of the previously placed batch.
c. While concrete rises inside the bore, the tremie pipe string will be extracted. When shortening the tremie pipe it has to be
assured that the bottom end of the tremie pipe remains in the fresh concrete by at least 3.0 m length at any time. Casings
will only be withdrawn to such levels that concrete level will be still above the toe of the casing.
d. For measurement of the level of concrete within the pile, an end-weighted measure tape will be used. The concrete will be
poured above the final pile cut-off level to ensure proper quality and contamination free concrete at the pile cut-off level.
The excess concrete above the cut-off level will be removed after hardening.
e. On completion of the concreting operation, the temporary casing will be withdrawn using the piling rig.
f. No dewatering operation will be carried out in the area of pile casting. The minimum distance between running well and
pilecasting shall not exceed 40 m.

4.2.6 Chipping of Pile Head


After hardening of the concrete, the excess concrete is chipped down to the cut-off level as per design. This works can
bedone by:
a. Breaking down the concrete with the help of jack-hammer manually or installed on a digger or by the use of pile
headcutter.
b. Milling of the excess-concrete
c. To avoid damages on the reinforcement cage in that section, the connection of the bars to the concrete is
prevented byprotection of the steel bars.
d. The chipping activity shall be in compliance with the cut-off levels as per approved shop drawings.

before starting the stressing work.
d. Stressing of cables shall be done as per the sequence mentioned in the drawings/specifications.
e. The first stage stressing shall be done after the concrete achieves 35 Mpa strength or 10 days after casting, whichever is
earlier. In the first stage two cables shall be stressed viz. cable no. 1 & cable no.2 or as shown in the drawing.
f. In the second stage stressing balance two cables i.e., cable no. 3 & cable no. 4 shall be stressed after the concrete achieves
45 Mpa strength (28 Days strength) or 21 days after the casting, whichever is later
g. Elongation mentioned in the drawings must be modified for actual value of modulus of elasticity ‘E’ and the area of c/s of
strands ‘A’ of the cables as per the results unless otherwise mentioned in the drawings/specifications.
h. Actual pressure shall be calculated after applying Jack efficiency factor.

j. Stressing shall be done from both ends; care will be taken to achieve almost equal readings of elongation at boththe ends
in each step of increment of pressure.
k. Readings will be taken preferably at incremental steps of 50 kg/cm2 up to the final pressure.
l. After locking the wedges, the pressure in the jack will be released very slowly to avoid transfer of prestressing force by
impact.
m.In every cable instantaneous slip of anchorages must be recorded. It will be within limits prescribed by the designer or by the
prestressing agency.
n. The pressure applied and elongation achieved will match within the prescribed limits. Normally, the limit is 5% of pressure
and elongations.
o. No person will be allowed to stand behind the anchorages in any circumstances during the process of tensioning.

4.5.1.2 Grouting
a. Grouting of cables shall be done as early as possible, after completion of stressing.
b. All cables that are to be grouted shall be cleaned thoroughly with water & compressed air.
c. The grout mix is prepared in the agitator by thoroughly mixing it for 1 min.
d. The agitator must be placed at a height such that mortar can flow directly in top second tank placed beneath the outlet of
agitator.
e. Before flowing in to the second tank mortar must be passed through a 2 mm. mesh screen so as to eliminate impurities and
lumps which otherwise cause choking of the pump at the time of grouting process.
f. Connect the suction hose of grout pump to the second drum.
g. Operate the pump to drain off water from the pump and hoses.
h. Allow discharge of a small quantity of grout from delivery hoses to check the correct functioning of pump.
i. Connect the delivery hoses to the tube unit’s grout inlet opening and begin grouting.
j. Ensure that there is always enough grout in tank so that air is not sucked in to the pump.
k. When the grout flows out of the dead-end tube unit’s grout opening, open the air vent nut of the grout caps of both the ends.
l. Block the outlet of the other end after being assured that the air has been completely bleed and the duct is filled with grout.
m.Close the air vent nut and operate the pump until the desired pressure is achieved.
n. After the design pressure is achieved, stop the pump and maintain the pressure of 3-5 Kg/cm2 for 1 min. and close the valve of
inlet connector.
o. Release the pressure in hose. The pump runs idle and returns grout to the tank.
p. Clean the grout pump & agitator with clean water to z avoid clogging.

4.5.1 End Protection of Anchorages

a. Tendons shall be protected against corrosion by a plug at each end to prevent passage of air. After grouting is over the
anchorages will be protected for corrosion.
b. Clean the exposed anchorage parts for rust and dirt with wire brush manually.
c. Clean the surface with cotton waste & apply a coat tar epoxy (solvent free araldite)
