I I longer). The creep rate shall be linear or decreasing throughout the I creep load hold period. 3. Failure does not occur at any load increment up to and including the 2.0 1 D.L. max test load. Failure is defined as load at which attempts to further increase the test load simply result in continued pile movement. G. Test verification piles to a maximum test load of 2.0 times the maximum I allowable Gemffessive load, hereafter termed, "Design Load", the loads as shown on the Plans. The verification pile load tests shall be made by incrementally loading the micropile in accordance with the following cyclic load III schedule for tension loading (test the compression prior to tension): I Verification Test Loading Schedule AL = Alignment Load DL = Design Load LOAD HOLD TIME 1 AL (.05 DL) 1 minute 2 0.25 DL 1 minute 3 0.50 DL 1 minute 4 AL 1 minute 5 0.25 DL 1 minute 1 6 0.50 DL 1 minute 7 0.75 DL 1 minute 1 8 AL 1 minute 9 0.25 DL 1 minute 10 0.50 DL 1 minute 11 0.75 DL 1 minute 12 1.00 DL 1 minute 13 AL 1 minute 111 14 0.25 DL 1 minute 15 0.50 DL 1 minute 16 0.75 DL 1 minute 17 1.00 DL 1 minute 18 1.33 DL 60 minutes 19 1.75 DL 1 minute I 20 2.00 DL 10 minutes (Maximum Test Load) 23 AL 1 minute I H. Upon completion of the test, the Contractor shall submit a report of the test results for review and acceptance by the Engineer prior to beginning installation of production micropiles. This report shall include written confirmation of the verification micropile's capacity. If a verification tested micropile fails to meet the acceptance criteria, the Contractor shall modify the design, the construction procedure, or both.
