Secant Pile Construction

The document describes secant pile construction for the OSIS Augmentation & Relief Sewer (OARS) Phase 2 project. Secant piles involve overlapping reinforced concrete piles that form a continuous retaining wall. The project involved constructing 397 secant pile shafts between 760-1180mm in diameter and up to 65 feet deep across 3 sites. Quality control during installation used ultrasonic and gyroscope devices to ensure verticality within tolerance. The secant pile walls supported drop shafts and approach channels for the sewer project.
