Rapid hardening problem in secant piles
Rapid hardening problem in secant piles
(OP)
In our site, in which still secant pile construction in progress, we experienced concrete had been hardened rapidly (in less than initial setting time) in several piles along the boundary closer to sea. This pile line is about 120m from sea.
Could you please state possible reasons for this and how to solve it?
Please see map attached.
Thanks.

Its me came with new problem.
Due to a mistake of rig operator, a set of 4 casings was fallen back into borehole.
Can you please suggest any suitable method to extract them out.
Top of casing set is at around 7-8 meters below the ground level.
This trouble is now becoming a real headache
RE: Rapid hardening problem in secant piles
How large a diameter is the borehole? >30"? Can someone go down a hole?
