F- To determine actual pile capacity pile test should be done by the
contractor according to ( ASTM D1143 ) minimum one tested pile
( working pile ) per each structure or per each 100 pile , with safety
factor ( S.F=2) , pile test result should sent to directorate to check
with the pile design capacity and take approval for final Nos. of
piles.

G- Concrete compressive strength fcu not less than 45Mpa at 28 days

for pre castpile and 35 Mpa at 28 days for cast insitu pile and
also for low part of H.L and L.L building and retaining structures
(clarifiers , ground storage tanks , Filters , Flash mixer , control
chamber, distribution chamber , sludge pit) and for others not
less than 30 Mpa at 28 days .

H- One bore hole for each structure at depth 30 m for retaining

Structures[ clariflocculater ( one borehole for each clariflocculater),
G.S.T , Filter building, elevated steel tank , sludge pit ] and 20m for
H.L and L.L building and others not less than 15 m and the
