Vol IE TCC 1484

The document outlines the criteria for assessing safe loads for piles, including safe vertical, lateral, and uplift loads, with specific measurements and conditions for each type. It also details the requirements for recording and reporting pile load test results to the engineer-in-charge. Additionally, it specifies the rate for pile work, including all necessary equipment and labor, and clarifies measurement and payment procedures for piles based on actual lengths.

9.0 CRITERIA FOR ASSESSMENT OF SAFE LOADS:

9.1 Safe vertical load

It shall be the latest of the following:


-2/3 of final load at which the total settlement attains a value of 12mm.
-50% of the total at which load at which the total settlement equate 10% of the
pile diameter.

The criteria for the safe load form routine load test shall also be the same.

9.2 Safe lateral load


Safe lateral load shall be the latest of the following:
-50% of the final load at which the pile deflection attains a values of 12mm
-Final load at which the total pile deflection corresponds to 5mm.
The criteria for the safe load form routine load test shall also be the same.

9.3 Safe up lift load


Safe up lift load on pile shall be the latest of the following:
a) Two-third of the load at which the total displacement attains a value of 12mm.
b) Half of the load at which the total displacement curve shows a clear break.
(downward trend)
A full record of pile load tests results shall be submitted to the engineer-in-charge
immediately on completion of each test. The record shall also include the plots of
load-settlement and time-settlement (for various stage of loads) characteristics of
pile and also the interpretation of the pile load test curve as per criteria for safe
loads as mentioned in clause 9.0of “Specification Requirements”. Further it
should also include driving record of tested piles. Any special observations shall
be duly explained by the contractor.

10.0 RATE:

1. Rate to be quoted for piles shall be inclusive of all equipments, lab our and
materials(excluding reinforcement) including boring, betonies slurry, concrete ,
chipping of excess concrete over cut off length, disposal of surplus earth , used
slurry and debris beyond 7 KM distance, shifting of plant and equipment from
pile to another etc, complete.

2. Rate for providing reinforcement to be quoted separately.

11.0 MEASURMENT OF PILES

The piles shall be measured and paid for the actual pile length from pile tip to cut-
off level, given in the working drawings or as indicated by the engineer-in-charge.
No extra payment shall be made for empty up to cut-off-level of 3m below N.G.L
or for concrete cast above cut-off-level (ref.clause 6.1.6)
If actual cut-off-length as per construction drawing is more than 3m form N.G.L,
