This Reference Specification covers requirements for drilled pier construction and applies to drilled piers of 30 in. (750 mm) diameter and larger. The Contractor shall submit proposed installation methods to the Owner's Representative-Geote
1.1 This guide provides procedures for the installation of DWV piping in buildings that are built where soil conditions require the use of pier or piling supported grade beam construction or in filled ground where the soil compaction is less than 95 %. These procedures are intended to...
Except for primary containment of hazardous materials, this code provides minimum requirements for the design and construction of reinforced concrete structural elements of any environmental engineering concrete structure, erected under the requirements of the legally adopted building code...

Mass concrete is defined in ACI 116R as "any volume of concrete with dimensions large enough to require that measures be taken to cope with generation of heat from hydration of the cement and attendant volume change to minimize cracking." The design of mass concrete structures is generally based on...
General Piles are slender structural elements installed in the ground to support a load or compact the soil. They are made of several materials or combinations of materials and are installed by impact driving, jacking, vibrating, jetting, drilling, grouting, or combinations of these techniques....
Realizing the need for more experimental testing of concrete structures, Committee 444, Experimental Analysis of Concrete Structures, took the initiative to sponsor two technical sessions on "Large-Scale Structural Testing." This is part of the mission of Committee 444 to promote and facilitate...
