Subject
The test pile driving program supervised by Engineer B
Terminatedby
Disclosure through Engineer A's geotechnical consultant's testimony at mediation
Triggeringevent
Dynamic test equipment failure during testing, use of vibratory hammer not used in original driving, and pre-record hammer drops breaking pile bond
Urgencylevel
high
Source Evidence
Source Text
Driving conditions were not duplicated in driving the test piles in that a vibratory hammer was used for the test piles and not used in the original driving.
Text References
After the 30 day set up, the driving hammer was dropped several times to start the hammer before the record of blow counts commenced.
Driving conditions were not duplicated in driving the test piles in that a vibratory hammer was used for the test piles and not used in the original driving.
Engineer B did not report that the dynamic test equipment had failed.
In the opinion of Engineer A's geotechnical consultant, this would have broken the pile bond and undervalued the skin friction value reported by Engineer B's tests.
The geotechnical consultant testified and showed that dynamic test equipment had failed during the test and that the test piles were not driven to the same depth of penetration.
