1. GEOTECHNICAL RESPONSIBILITIES

D'Wall Panel Layout Design & Approval

: Prepare detailed D'Wall (diaphragm wall) panel layouts, coordinating closely with the site team and rebar team to ensure layout feasibility. Engage with the client to finalize designs and obtain necessary approvals.

Trench Stability & Dewatering Scheme

: Review and verify the trench stability and dewatering schemes for the D'Wall. Manage design checks and secure client approvals, ensuring that on-site conditions align with approved designs.

Site Proposal Analysis & Technical Submittals

: Analyze geotechnical site proposals and collaborate with HQ-Design to develop comprehensive technical submittals. Address any modifications required for client approval.

Geotechnical Factual Reports

: Conduct geotechnical field investigations, including borehole studies along the diaphragm wall alignment at project sites , compiling factual and interpretive reports for submission to the client.

Depth Reduction Proposals

: Develop and submit proposals to reduce D'Wall depth in hard rock zones, considering site-specific trenching challenges and technical requirements. Create backup documentation for client review and approval.

Coordination with GTI Site Team

: Provide technical guidance to the GTI site team, ensuring drilling activities align with technical and client standards. Oversee drilling activities and depth confirmations as per requirements.

Drilling Activity Monitoring & Piezometer Installation

: Track daily drilling operations for piezometer installations, compile data for future reference, and monitor slurry properties during bentonite circulation for quality assurance.

2. SITE COORDINATION

Documentation & Revision Updates

: Keep the site team informed of recent revisions to technical submissions, clarifying any layout or depth-related adjustments.

Issue Resolution:

Address queries related to D'Wall panel layout, structural elements, and depth requirements, providing guidance to site personnel.

Structural Element Importance

: Emphasize the critical role of each structural element in maintaining overall design integrity, explaining these aspects as required for site awareness.

3. SURVEY COORDINATION

Final Alignment Checks

: Collaborate with the survey manager to verify the alignment of D'Wall panels, checking coordinates against reference points and ensuring layout accuracy.

Daily Alignment Updates

: Provide continuous updates on any adjustments to the panel layout alignment, ensuring synchronization with the latest survey data.
