3 HIGH-STRAIN DYNAMIC PILE TESTING REPORT Bent 46.5 Between A & B Bent 50.5 Between A & B Structural Repairs at TC Dock Naval Weapons Station North Charleston, South Carolina S&ME Project No Prepared for: 7582 Stafford Road, #139 North Charleston, South Carolina Attn: Mr. Carlton Diggs Prepared by: 620 Wando Park Boulevard Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina July 18, 2011

4 July 18, 2011 Precon Marine, Inc Stafford Road, #139 North Charleston, South Carolina Attention: Reference: Mr. Carlton Diggs HIGH-STRAIN DYNAMIC PILE TESTING REPORT Bent 46.5 Between A & B Bent 50.5 Between A & B Structural Repairs to TC Dock NWS Charleston North Charleston, South Carolina S&ME Project No Dear Mr. Diggs, We have completed high-strain dynamic pile testing services on two Phase III production piles at the Transportation Command (TC) Dock on the Charleston Naval Weapons Station in North Charleston, South Carolina. Services were performed in general accordance with our proposal No dated November 8, Our dynamic testing procedures and detailed results for the tested piles, designated Bent 46.5 Between A & B and Pile 50.5 Between A & B, are presented in this report. PROJECT INFORMATION Based on the project plans, we understand 24-in. square, PSC piles are designed to support a compressive load of 200 kips (100 tons). The plans indicate a safety factor of 2.25 should be applied, resulting in an ultimate compressive pile bearing resistance requirement of 450 kips. The plans indicate a minimum PSC embedment of 15 ft into the Cooper Marl bearing stratum. We understand Precon proposes to install the 24-in. compression piles to a PSC embedment of less than 15 ft, provided the project requirements are achieved. High-strain dynamic pile testing was specified for this project, and per Precon s request, testing was performed during initial installation and restrike driving of the Bent 46.5 Between A & B Bent 50.5 Between A & B. High-strain dynamic testing during installation was performed primarily to evaluate driving stresses, and secondarily to measure ultimate pile bearing resistance. For driven piles bearing in the marl, the ultimate long-term capacity is typically not achieved during initial driving, but rather some time following driving as excess pore pressures generated during installation dissipate and the pile sets-up. Therefore, additional testing was also performed during restrike driving approximately 6 days after initial pile driving in order to measure the increased pile bearing resistance.

5 Dynamic Pile Testing Report Bent 46.5 Between A & B and Bent 50.5 Between A & B S&ME Project No Structural Repairs to TC Dock NWS Charleston; North Charleston, South Carolina July 18, 2011 HIGH-STRAIN DYNAMIC PILE TESTING METHODOLOGY High-strain dynamic pile testing was performed using a model PAX Pile Driving Analyzer TM commonly referred to as a PDA. The PDA was used to record and interpret data from two strain transducers and two piezoelectric accelerometers (i.e., the gages ) that were bolted on opposite sides of the pile approximately 3 ft below the pile top. The gages monitor acceleration and strain for each hammer blow. The analyzer converts the data to velocities and forces and computes Case Method pile bearing resistances, maximum transferred hammer energies, maximum pile driving forces, and pile integrity using the pile length and area, stress wave speed, and an assumed soil damping factor, J. The results are displayed in the field for each blow. The program CAPWAP is a more rigorous computer analysis used to refine the Case Method calculations obtained in the field during data collection. This iterative signal matching program combines a theoretical pile-soil model and the PDA measurements. The pile-soil model is assumed, and the soil properties, resistances, and pile properties are adjusted until the calculated pile top data matches the measured field data. CAPWAP results include a theoretical load distribution between the skin friction along the length of the pile and end bearing quantities, damping factors, and soil quakes in addition to the ultimate pile bearing resistance and pile stresses. PILE TESTING AND OBSERVATIONS General We performed dynamic pile testing on two 100-ft long, 24-in. square PSC piles at locations Bent 46.5 between A & B and Bent 50.5 Between A & B. The observed driving resistances were based on the PSC pile penetration below the driving template. Based on a top of deck elevation of approximately +12 ft-mllw, the template elevation was approximately +14 ft-mllw. All PSC pile penetrations and tip elevations herein are based upon this +14 ft-mllw template elevation. Pile driving resistances were observed and recorded by Slone personnel and are shown on the attached Pile Driving Logs. A summary of the testing is presented in Table 1 and explained in more detail in the following paragraphs. Pile Driving System The tested piles were installed with a Pileco D46-32 open-end diesel hammer which has a ram weight of kips, a maximum stroke of 10.5 ft, and a manufacturer s maximum rated energy of ft-kips. At the beginning of impact installation of both piles, the hammer was set on Fuel No. 1 (i.e., 4 is highest) and was increased to Fuel No. 2 when the driving resistance approached 100 blows per foot (bpf). During the final installation, the hammer was operated at Fuel No. 4 for both piles. 2

Heath Forbes, E.I.T. Kyle L. Murrell, P.E. July 5, 2011 The 100 ft long, 24-in. PSC piles at Bent 46.5 and 50.5 were placed in the template and penetrated to tip elevations of about -53½ and -57½ ft-mllw under their own weight. The pile at 46.5 was driven first and was installed to a tip elevation of -70½ ft-mllw. Following the installation of the pile at Bent 46.5, the pile at 50.5 was installed to a tip elevation of -66½ ft-mllw. July 11, 2011 Approximately 6 days after initial installation, we returned to the site and performed additional high-strain dynamic testing during final installation. The pile at 46.5 was driven about 2 ft during final installation and the pile at 50.5 was driven 3 ft during final installation. DYNAMIC TESTING RESULTS The Case Method Results plots and tables in the Appendix provide the measured individual maximum (CSI) and average (CSX) pile top compressive stresses, calculated tensile (TSX) stresses, hammer stoke heights (STK), transferred hammer energies (EMX), and Case Method capacity assuming a damping factor (J) of 0.9 (RX9) for initial installation or 0.6 (RX6) for final installation. The Case Method capacities presented on the attached graphs and tables should only be used to evaluate trends as they are based on a constant assumed damping factors which may not be appropriate at all depths. Based on the CAPWAP analyses from the beginning of final installation (i.e., restrike ), which are included in the Appendix, a Case Method damping factor of 0.6 is generally appropriate for determining the ultimate pile bearing resistance. The pertinent test data is summarized in Table 2. 3

STK = average calculated stroke height at referenced tip elevation. * CAPWAP not performed. Based on RX9 Case Method bearing capacity estimate. CAPWAP computed capacity. See following paragraphs for more details. CAPWAP Analysis CAPWAP analyses were performed on selected blows near the beginning of final installation ( restrike ) for both piles. At a PSC tip elevation of about -70½ ft-mllw for the pile at Bent 46.5, an ultimate compressive pile bearing resistance of 491 kips (245 tons) was computed. At a PSC tip elevation of about -66½ ft-mllw for the pile at Bent 50.5, an ultimate compressive pile bearing resistance of 463 kips (231 tons) was computed. The CAPWAP analyses provide estimates of load distribution 1 from both end and side shear resistance, illustrate typical force and 1 Although the total soil resistance (i.e., the combination of end and side resistance) calculated from the CAPWAP program is typically within +/-10% of a traditional static load test, the load distribution is not as reliable as the total soil resistance. Calculating a true load distribution near the toe of the pile is even more difficult when trying to distinguish true end bearing from side resistance over the last few feet of the pile. 4

As expected, the majority of the pile bearing resistance was developed in skin resistance. Hammer Energy, Driving Stresses, and Integrity The measured transferred hammer energy (EMX) ranged from about 17 to 30 ft-kips during installation while the hammer was operated at Fuel Settings No. 2 or 4. This corresponds to transfer efficiencies 2 of about 16% to 28%. The measured compressive stresses in the pile during installation remained below the recommended maximum limits 3 and calculated tensile stresses reached the limit and surpassed it briefly at the end of the initial installation for both piles. Based on visual observations of the pile and our evaluation of the dynamic test data, no significant pile integrity issues were noted. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Our review of the boring and sounding logs, as well as the driving logs indicate the piles achieved the marl penetrations shown in Table 3. Table 3 Summary of Marl Penetration Pile Estimated Marl End of Initial Installation Estimated Marl End of Final Installation Bent 46.5 between A & B Bent 50.5 between A & B 12 ft 16 8 ft 11 Based on the dynamic testing results presented in Table 2 and the marl penetrations presented in Table 3, 24-in. square PSC piles achieving a Cooper Marl penetration on the order of 8 ft will achieve a long-term ultimate pile bearing resistance of at least 450 kips. As discussed in our June 15 th Cooper Marl Penetration Depth for Compression Piles letter, other design considerations (lateral performance, scour, etc.) may dictate the minimum marl embedment. In order to control the tensile stresses and reduce the potential for damage to new piles, we recommend the hammer be operated at a fuel setting of 1 at the beginning of installation and that a new 14-in. thick plywood cushion be installed prior to installation of each pile. Once the driving resistance is at least 100 bpf, the fuel setting can be increased to No. 2. If the required minimum 2 Transfer efficiency is defined as the maximum measured energy in the pile divided by the manufacturer s maximum rated energy. 3 Driving stress limits as per AASHTO recommendations: Compressive [0.85*(f c)]-prestress and Tensile [3* f c] + Prestress. We understand that f c is 5,000 psi and the effective pre-stress is 925 psi. Therefore, the recommended driving limits for compression and tension are 3.3 ksi and 1.1 ksi, respectively. 5
