Abstract
This is a case study of a forensic geotechnical investigation to assess the possible causes which prevented the satisfactory construction of large-diameter bored piles using the bailer technique. The investigation involved first identifying the possible causes, carrying out field and laboratory tests where necessary to assess the same, analysis of the test results, and finally arriving at the conclusion.
