Pile Driving Record Resource
Class
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#PileDrivingRecordResource
Definition
A contemporaneous field record documenting blow counts, penetration depth, and driving resistance data collected during pile installation. These records serve as primary technical evidence for evaluating whether driven piles achieved design load-carrying capacity and are used in post-construction review, dispute resolution, and engineering analysis.

Engineer B did not state anywhere in the report that these 19 piles, according to the pile driving records, had been driven to essential refusal
One expert testified that the pile driving records indicated that many of the piles did not, at the time of initial driving, meet driving resistance sufficient to satisfy the load carrying requirements of the design calculations.
We didn't look at the pile driving records because it was not in our scope of work.
We just did not believe the driving records
