Part B - Verifications and approval requirements
• Where necessary, the justified representation of the necessity, the appropriateness and the
adequacy of the observation method and
• Information detailing all the certificates and verifications of the preconditions to be presen
ted during the installation and operating phases.
Whilst construction is under way, the construction-specific supplementary geotechnical re
ports, together with their verification components, will be added to the geotechnical design
report as construction progresses. These include the evaluation and assessment of compo
nent tests, such as dynamic pile load tests, the documentation and assessment of installation
logs (pile-driving logs, injection logs etc.), as well as the evaluation and assessment of the ef
fects of deviations of the installation results from the assumptions, preconditions and provi
sions set down in the geotechnical design report.
3.3.3.2 Geotechnical as-built documentation (geotechnical installation report)
Once the installation of the foundation elements has been completed, a verified geotechnical
installation report shall be presented. This geotechnical installation report constitutes the
“Geotechnical component of the as-built documentation”.
Based on the geotechnical design report, this installation report shall contain all the relevant
information concerning the implemented installation with respect to the stability and the serv
iceability of the foundation elements, in particular compliance with and deviations from the
assumptions, preconditions and provisions applying to the verifications regarding the geo
technical design in accordance with chapter B3.3.3.1.
3.3.3.3 Supplementary reports to the geotechnical design report
In as far as the data and findings required for the safety verifications only become available
during the actual installation of the foundation elements, appropriate supplementary reports
to the geotechnical design report shall be developed by the planning expert for geotechnics.
These shall include respective references to the geotechnical design report in accordance
with B3.3.3.1.
In as far as the installed foundation elements deviate from the assumptions, preconditions
and provisions applying to the verifications of the geotechnical design report, supplementary
reports to the geotechnical design report shall be developed to certify that the stability and
serviceability of the foundation elements is maintained under the deviating conditions.
3.3.3.4 Documents to be submitted for the 2 nd release
The following verified geotechnical documents shall be included with the application docu
mentation for the 2 nd release. All documents shall comply with the BSH Standard Ground In
vestigations:
Main ground investigation report
Subsoil and foundations survey (design phase) as well as the
Geotechnical design report and
Where necessary, supplementary expert opinion on cyclic loads (“cyclics”)
[Doc. No. 320]
[Doc. No. 321]
[Doc. No. 322]
[Doc. No. 323]
[Doc. No. 324] Report from the company conducting the dynamic pile load tests, including
details on the planned sensors, their respective installation and planned cable
routes
