Much like drilled shaft construction, appropriate means and methods must be used during the installation of augercast pile foundations. Our augercast pile inspection service begins with a comprehensive review of the Pile Installation Plan, but that is just the beginning.
Our inspection services include:
- Attending any pre-pile installation meetings to go over the augercast pile installation procedures
- Observing installation of demonstration pile and production piles
- Inspecting and verifying the requirements of the Construction Plans and ensuring specifications are adhered to during augercast pile installation
- Casting grout cylinders for strength testing in accordance with the specifications
- Generating high-quality augercast pile installation records
- Verifying that the quality control processes of the Augercast Pile Installation Plan are followed during construction
- Examining the records and identifying potential problems encountered during construction so a timely resolution can be reached
