TIP TIP [County Name(s)] County(ies)

For prestressed concrete piles that are built up, the build-up will be measured and paid at the contract unit price for \_\_\_\_ Prestressed Concrete Piles. Steel pile tips are not included in the measurement of prestressed concrete piles. No separate payment will be made for steel pile tips or splicers and any associated hardware or welding. Steel pile tips and steel pile splicers will be incidental to the contract unit price for \_\_\_\_ Prestressed Concrete Piles. Steel Pile Points Pile Points and Pipe Pile Plates will be measured and paid in units of each. Steel Pile Points and Pipe Pile Plates will be measured as one per pile. Predrilling for Piles will be measured and paid in linear feet. For bents with a predrilling pay item shown in the plans, predrilling will be paid as Predrilling for Piles and measured per pile location as the depth from the ground or mud line to the specified predrilling elevation or revised elevation approved by the Engineer. The contract unit price for Predrilling for Piles will also be full compensation for using temporary casings. For bents without a predrilling pay item shown in the plans, predrilling will be incidental to the contract unit prices for \_\_\_\_ Prestressed Concrete Piles, \_\_\_\_ Steel Piles and \_\_\_\_ Galvanized Steel Piles. No direct payment will be made for spudding. Spudding will be incidental to the contract unit prices for \_\_\_\_ Prestressed Concrete Piles, \_\_\_\_ Steel Piles and \_\_\_\_ Galvanized Steel Piles. Pile Redrives Redrives will be measured and paid in units of each. Pile Redrives will be measured as the number of restrikes or redrives required by the Engineer. No payment will be made for restrikes or redrives when the Contractor chooses to restrike or redrive piles. Pile Excavation in Soil Excavation in Soil and Pile Excavation Not in Soil will be measured and paid in linear feet. Pile excavation will be measured as the depth from the ground line to the specified pile excavation elevation or revised elevation approved by the Engineer. Define “not in soil” as material with a rock auger penetration rate of less than 2" per 5 minutes of drilling at full crowd force. When not in soil is encountered, seams, voids and weathered rock less than 3 ft thick with a rock auger penetration rate of greater than 2" per 5 minutes of drilling at full crowd force will be paid at the contract unit price for Pile Excavation Not in Soil. Seams, voids and weathered rock greater than 3 ft thick will be paid at the contract unit price for Pile Excavation in Soil where not in soil is no longer encountered. The contract unit prices for Pile Excavation in Soil and Pile Excavation Not in Soil will be full compensation for stabilizing and filling holes with concrete, grout or flowable fill. PDA Testing Testing will be measured and paid in units of each. PDA Testing will be measured as one per pile. The contract unit price for PDA Testing will be full compensation for performing PDA testing the first time a pile is tested, performing CAPWAP analysis on data collected during initial drive, restrikes and redrives, providing PDA reports, performing GRLWEAP analysis and developing and providing pile driving criteria. Subsequent PDA testing of the same piles will be incidental to the contract unit price for Pile Redrives. The contract unit price for PDA Testing will also be full compensation for the Contractor’s assistance to perform PDA testing during initial drive, restrikes and redrives. Payment will be made under:

Pay Item	Pay Unit
