12
 Cleaning Bottom of Hole (1st Cleaning)

• Circulation of slurry for 5 to 10 minutes to remove

excavated soil and slime
• Remove Rotary Table, Tricon Bit etc.

13
 KODEN Test
• Measure condition, verticality and diameter of bore
hole using ultra sonic test.

14
Installation of Rebar Cage

15
Splicing of Main Bars by U-Bolt

16
Setting Tremie Pipe and Re-cleaning of Bore Hole
• Bottom of the Tremie Pipe (dia 250mm) shall be at least 250mm to
300mm from the bottom of bore hole

• Check the depth again

• Replace the old Bentonite liquid by fresh liquid

• Check the sand contents (<3%)

On shore Casting

20
 Off Shore Casting

1. Bottom of Tremie Pipe to be kept into concrete 2m or more

2. Remove Temporary Casing and backfill the borehole after 0.5-1hr

21
 Sonic Logging Test
To check the homogeneity and integrity of concrete - sonic logging test after 1 week.

Sonic tubes:60.5mm,

114.3mm dia.
