Caisson As-Builts
Wondering how everyone else handles this situation. My company recently started doing more caisson layouts, which is easy enough. Although I’m running into a problem when they want us to go back and as-built the caissons once they are finished and filled with concrete, for instance let’s say the caisson is suppose to be 36″ diameter. Now if the top is formed, no big deal. My problem are the ones that aren’t formed and the concrete measures roughly 48″ x 55″, for a 36″ caisson. I know that the top of the ground has caved in a little and there is a mushroom effect for the top of the caisson. As I see it there is no way that I can say that the caisson is within 3″ of plan location. Just wondering how others deal with this situation?
