Pile Hacking Methodology

The document outlines the methodology for hacking reinforced concrete piles. The surveyor first marks the periphery and breaking lines on the pile, 500mm and 1500mm above the foundation bottom. Using a diamond cutting disk, the pile is cut in 50mm depths along the periphery line to expose the reinforcement. Concrete is then hacked away until the pile breaks above the foundation, separating the stub. Reinforcements are cut while supported, then debris is removed.

PILE HACKING METHODOLOGY

1. Ensure the working area to be safe, dry and stable.


2. The surveyor will set the levels mark the periphery of the RC Pile for the
cutting line 500mm above the bottom of the foundation.
3. Set the level and mark 1500mm above the bottom of the foundation for the
breaking of the RC Pile.
4. Using 7 diameter diamond cutting disk, cut 50mm depth or less to avoid
cutting the reinforcement along the periphery mark.
5. Hack the concrete to expose reinforcement.
6. Continue hacking till breaking all the concrete to separate the stub and the
upper portion of the RC Pile.
7. Cut the reinforcement while being supported by a sling connected to the
crane.
8. Dispose the excess of the RC Pile.
9. Clear the area for debris.
