4.01.04 Provision shall be kept for chiselling within the pilebore, as specified
elsewhere in this specification. Chiselling shall be carried out only with the
approval of Engineer.

4.02.00 Installation Criteria

4.02.01 For determining the founding level of piles in soil as specified elsewhere, the
Contractor shall have to perform Standard penetration test (SPT) as per IS:
2131 in a separate bore hole. The SPT shall be conducted at 1.0 m interval
between the depths covering 5 metres each above and below the specified
founding level. The bore shall be 100 mm diameter and method of boring shall
conform to IS: 1892.

4.02.02 For determining founding level of piles in rock, as specified elsewhere

socketing horizon shall be established by the Contractor by collecting rock
cores of NX size in a separate borehole, and testing the same for uniaxial
compressive strength (UCS). Cores shall be collected by double tube core
barrel attached with diamond bit. Coring shall be done upto a depth as indicated
in the "specific requirements." Coring in rock shall conform to IS: 6926.

4.02.03 In case it is not possible to test the cores so obtained for uniaxial compressive
strength, cores shall be tested for point load strength index and correlated to
obtain uniaxial compressive strength.

4.02.04 Number of boreholes for carrying out SPT in soil or uniaxial compressive
strength in rock, shall vary from one in 100 to 150 piles or pile group of 150
Sqm depending on the site condition and as decided by the Engineer.
However, at the location of initial load test piles, one such borehole shall be
done.

4.02.05 A protocol between contractor and BHEL site shall be maintained regarding the
strata at founding level. SPT value and UCS from the nearest borehole shall be
indicated therein.

4.02.06 The founding level of the pile shall be decided based on the criteria elaborated in
the specific requirements under Annexure-A. Concreting shall not be done until
the above conditions for founding level are satisfied.

4.02.07 Approval of founding level by the Engineer shall in no way absolve the
Contractor of his responsibility to guarantee the Safe load capacity of the piles as
indicated in this document.

4.03.00 Control of position and alignment

4.03.01 Piles shall be installed as accurately vertical as possible. The permissible limits
for deviation with respect to position and (inclination) alignment shall conform
to IS: 2911 Part I/Sec. 2, which is reproduced below for ready reference.

C:\Documents and Settings\ssen\Desktop\LAB-TEST-CESC\FILE-3-D21-FINAL-PILING(2).doc

a) The maximum deviation of vertical piles shall not exceed 1.5 per cent in
alignment.

b) Piles shall not deviate more than 75 mm or D/4 whichever is less (75mm
or D/10 whichever is more in case of piles having diameter more then
750mm) from their designed position at the working level.

4.04.00 Boring

4.04.01 Boring operations shall be done by rotary or percussion type drilling rigs using
reverse mud circulation (RMC) method. Rotary hydraulic pulley shall be
preferred.

4.04.02 The Contractor shall satisfy himself about the suitability of the method to be
adopted for site. If DMC (direct mud circulation) or RMC is used Bentonite slurry
shall be pumped through drill rods by means of high-pressure pumps. The
cutting tool shall have suitable ports for the bentonite slurry to flow out at high
pressure. If on mobilisation, the Contractor fails to make a proper bore for any
reason, the Contractor has to switchover to other boring methods as approved by
the Engineer at no extra cost to the Owner.

4.04.03 Working level shall be above the cut off level. After the initial boring of about
1.0m a temporary guide casing of suitable length shall be lowered in the pile bore.
The diameter of guide casing shall be of such diameter, so as to give the
necessary finished diameter of the concrete pile. The centre line of guide casing
shall be checked before continuing further boring. Guide casing shall be
minimum of 1.0m length. Additional length of casing may be used depending
on the condition of the strata, ground water level etc.

4.04.04 Use of drilling mud (bentonite slurry) for stabilizing the sides of the pile bore is
necessary wherever subsoil is likely to collapse in the pile bore. Drilling mud to
be used shall meet the requirement as given in Annexure-C.

4.04.05 The bentonite slurry and the cuttings, which are carried to the surface by the
rising flow of the slurry, shall pass through settling tanks of adequate size to
remove the sand and spoils from the slurry before the slurry is recirculated to the
boring. The bentonite slurry mixing and recirculation plant shall be suitably
designed and installed.

4.04.06 The bentonite slurry shall be maintained at 1.5m above the ground water level
during boring operations and till the pile is concreted. When DMC or RMC
method is used the bentonite slurry shall be under constant circulation till start of
concreting.

4.04.07 The size of cutting tools shall not be less than the diameter of the pile by more than
75mm. However, the pile bore shall be of the specified size.

4.05.00 Chiselling

4.05.01 Chiselling may be resorted to with the permission of the Engineer below the
socketing horizon. The chiselling tool or bit shall be of adequate size and
weight so as to reach the desired depth.

4.06.00 Cleaning of Pile bore

4.06.01 On completion of the pile bore upto the required depth, the bottom of the hole
shall be cleaned very carefully before concreting work is taken up. Cleaning shall
ensure that the pile bore is completely free from sludge/bored materials, debris
of rock/boulder etc. Necessary checks shall be made as given in clause 5.0 to
confirm the thorough cleaning of the pile bore.

4.06.02 Pile bore shall be cleaned by fresh drilling mud through tremie pipe after
placing reinforcement and just before start of concreting.

4.06.03 Pile bore spoil along with used drilling mud shall be disposed off from site as
directed by the Engineer.

4.06.04 Pile bore bottom shall be thoroughly cleaned to make it free from sludge or any
foreign matter before and after placing the reinforcement cage.

4.07.00Adjacent Structures

4.07.01 When working near existing structures care shall be taken to avoid any damage
to such structures.

4.08.00 Concreting

4.08.01 The Contractor shall carry out concrete mix design in accordance with IS:
10262 and submit mix design calculations and get them approved from the
Engineer well in advance for installation of piles. Adequate number of tests on
cubes, etc. shall be carried out as mentioned in clause 5.0 to ensure concrete of the
minimum specified strength in accordance with IS: 456 at requisite workability
(slump).

4.08.02 Concreting shall not be done until the Engineer is satisfied that the bearing
strata (soil/rock) met with at the termination level of pile.

4.08.03 The time interval between the completion of boring and placing of concrete
shall not exceed 6 hrs. In case the time interval exceeds 6 hrs the pilebore shall
be abandoned. However, the Engineer may allow concreting provided the
Contractor extends the pile bore by 0.5 m beyond the proposed depth, and clean
the pilebore. The entire cost of all operation and materials for this extra length
shall be borne by the Contractor.

a) In this test, a low stress wave is set up in the pile shaft and is also known as
Sonic Integrity or Sonic Echo test.

b) A small metal/hard rubber hammer is used to produce a light blow on top of

the pile. The shock wave travelling down the length of the pile is reflected
back from the toe of the pile and recorded through a suitable transducer/
accelerometer in a computer for subsequent analysis.

c) The primary shockwave, which travels down the length of the shaft, is
reflected from the toe by the change in density between the concrete and sub
strata. However, if the pile has any imperfections or discontinuities within

C:\Documents and Settings\ssen\Desktop\LAB-TEST-CESC\FILE-3-D21-FINAL-PILING(2).doc

d) By analysis of the captured signal and knowledge of the conditions of the

ground, age of concrete, etc. a picture of the locations of pile shaft defects
can be built up. The observed signals are amplified into digital display as
velocity versus length records providing information on structural integrity of
piles.

e) The stress wave velocity and approximate pile lengths are provided as
input for the integrity testing. The stress wave velocity is dependent on the
Young's Modulus and mass density of pile concrete.

f) More than one recording of signals shall be done until repeatability of

4 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS :

4.1 Pile shall be designed in such a way that the load from the structure or supports
should be transmitted to the soil without causing any soil failure and without
causing such settlement under permanent/transient loading which may result in
structural damage and /or functional distress. The pile shaft have adequate
structural capacity to withstand all loads and moments which are to be transmitted
to the subsoil.

4.2 The soil report data consisting of borelog datas, laboratory test results and pile
recommendations is attached alongwith for bidders. Safe pile load capacity to be
adopted for working loads as below. Initial load test of pile is being conducted
separately and the result/recommendations will be provided to bidder at the start
of work at site.

4.3 Bidder has to conduct working load test of pile as per IS :2911 Part-IV and ensure
the safe rated load capacities of pile. Structural design of pile will be done by
BHEL. For driven cast in situ piles, bidder has to provide the set criteria for
approval of BHEL/CESC/TCE as per the equipments mobilised for driving casing
of driven piles to ensure end bearing strength of soil strata. The hammer weight of
pile rigs for driving pile shall be preferably 5MT.

4.4 The construction of extension unit#3 is in continuation to existing unit#1&2. As

the construction work for Unit#3 including driving of pile casing is to be done
adjacent to existing unit#2, care has to be taken that no damage occurs to existing
structure and functioning of sensitive instruments in existing unit. A vibration
measurement exercise was done by BHEL/CESC/TCE while driving pile casing
of 550mm diameter during initial pile load test and based on that extent of
bored/driven pile is decided adjacent to eisting structures.
Bidders has to follow the driving procedure as approved by BHEL. Progressive
increase in blow height is to be adopted for driving pile casing in viscinity of
existing structures with limited nos. of rigs operating at a time near existing
structure in each zone.

inclination. As a guide for vertical pileds, a deviation of 1.5% and for raker a
deviation of 4% shall be normally permitted. Piles shall not be out of position by
more than 75 mm from the designed location at the working level of piling rig. In
case of a single pile in a column, positional tolerance shall not exceed 50 mm. In
cae of piles deviating beyond these limits and to such an extent that the resulting
eccentricity cannot be taken care of by a redesign of the pile cap or pile tiles, piles
shall be replaced or supplemented by one or more additional piles.

6.2 WITHDRAWAL OF CASING :

6.2.1 It shall be ensured that volume of concrete poured in at at least equal the volume
of pile shaft being concreted and the rate of concreting should match with the rate
of withdrawal of casings. It should be ensured that minimum 1 m height of
concrete should always be maintained in the casing.

6.2.2 When withdrawing the casing, the head of concrete in the hole shall always be
more than the head of ground water table outside the casing to prevent inflow of
water inside.

6.3 ADJACENT STRUCTERES :

6.3.1 When Working near existing structures care shall be taken to aviod any damage to
such structure. Fig 1 of IS :2974 (Part I) may be folowed a a guide.

6.3.2 In case of deep excavation adjacent to piles, proper shoring or other suitable
arrangement shall be made to guard against the lateral movement of soil stratum
or releasing the confining soil stress.

6.4 SEQUENCE OF PILING

6.4.1 In a pile group, the sequence of installation of piles shall normally be from the
centre to the periphery of the group or from one side to the other.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
FOR MISCELLANEOUS STEEL
WORKS
PEM-CIVIL PAGE_7 OF__7__

6.4.2 In case of compact soil specially, the consideration shall be given to the
possibility of doing harm to a pile recently formed by driving the tube nearby
before the concrete has sufficiently set.

6.4.3 Driving piles in loose sand tends to compact the sand which in turn increases the
skin friction. Therefore, the order of installing such a pile in a group shall avoid
creating a compacting block of ground into which further piles cannot be driven.
In case where stiff clay or compact sand layer have to be penetrated, similar
precautions need to be taken. This may be overcome by driving the piles from the
centre outwards or by beginning at a selected edge or working across a group.
However, in case of soft soils, the driving may have to proceed from outside to
inside so that the soils is restrained from flowing out during operations.

6.5 JETTING

Jetting of casings by means of water shall not normally be permitted. In every

special circumstances however, it may be carried out only with the express
permision of the Engineer-in-Charge without impairing the bearing capacity of
piles already in place, the stability of soil, or the safety of any adjoining building.

6.6 The top of concrete in a pile shall be brought above the cut-off level to remove all
laitance and weak concrete before caping and to ensure good concrete at the cut-
off level. The reinforcing cage shall be left with adequate protuding length above
the cut off level for embedment into the pile cap.

6.7.1 As a general guide line for cut-off level upto 1.5m below working level, the
concrete shall be cast to a min. of 300mm above cut off level. For each additional
0.3m increase in cut-off level below working level, an additional coverage of
50mm shall be allowed.

6.8 DEFECTIVE PILE

Defective pile shall be removed or left in place without affecting the performance
of the adjacent piles or the cap as a whole. Additional piles shall be provided to
replace them when required. Various pile testing items are provided in the BOQ
and it is necessary that the installed pile shall pass the tests specified, failing
which it will be treated as defective pile.

6.9.1 Any deviation from designed location alignment or load capacity of any pile shall
be noted and adequate measures taken well before concreting of the pile cap and
plinth beam.

6.9.2 During chipping of the pile cap, manual chipping may be permitted after three
days of pile casting while pneumatic tool for chipping shall not be used before
seven days after pile casting.
