TABLE OF CONTENTS
2.0 METHOD FOR TESTING HELICAL PILES UNDER STATIC AXIAL TENSILE
LOAD per IEC61773-1996
1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 Pile load tests will be executed on site. Pile load testing areas
will be defined based upon suitable access location along the
line. The purpose of load testing is to test ‘production’ piles, or
piles closely resembling actual situations encountered during
construction.
1.1.2 Helical Pile foundations have been designed for the proposed
138kV transmission line located between city of Aguaytia to
the city of Pucallpa in Peru. The proposed line will consist of a
series of transmission towers (T228 – T297) connecting the
Aguaytia-Pucallpa substations.
1.1.3 Test procedures chosen follow all local safety standards and
norms.
1.2 Objective
1.3.1 The compression tests will be carried out on the proposed pile
to verify the pile behavior and performance at vertical axial
loads up to 190kN or 50mm settlement (failure), whichever
occurs first.
1.3.3 After testing, reaction piles would be used for its original
purpose in production. Test piles will be discarded.
1.4.1 If necessary, excavate or fill the test area to the final grade
elevation within a radius of 6 m from the test pile or group
using the same material and backfilling methods for
production piles.
1.4.2 The test pile and the reaction piles will be installed at
minimum spacing of 2.0 m or 3 times the helix diameter,
whichever is greater as per IEC61773-1996. The test pile and
reaction piles will be installed to the required elevations or cut
off at the required elevation.

1.4.3 Pile caps will be installed on top of the reaction piles either by
utilizing the drive pin holes in the pile to bolt the pile cap to the
pile, or by burning new holes into the pile if the pile has been
cut off to the required elevation. A pile cap will also be
installed on top of the compression test pile.
1.4.5 A test beam will be placed on the reaction pile caps. Dywidag
bars will be used to transfer the uplift forces from the test
beam to reaction pile caps.
1.4.6 Two reference bars will be placed one on each side of the
tested pile. The bars will be used to support dial gauges,
which will record displacement as the pile is loaded. Two dial
gauges will be used to measure the test pile movement during
the load test. The hydraulic jack and pump will be used to
measure the load using pressure gauges. Hydraulic pressure
shown on the pump will be transferred to loads based on the
manufacturers published information. A chart will be
generated showing this relationship. Refer to the appropriate
sections of this submittal for reference drawings.
1.5.3 Remove the load once maximum design load has been
achieved and maintained for 30min. Record final result at 0
load.
1.5.5 The residual movement, once all load has been removed,
must be recorded at the end of the test.

SAFETY INFORMATION
To avoid personal injury during system operation, read and follow all
CAUTIONS, WARNINGS, and INSTRUCTIONS included with or attached
to each product. ENERPAC CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE
RESULTING FROM UNSAFE USE OF PRODUCT, LACK OF
MAINTENANCE, OR INCORRECT PRODUCT OR SYSTEM
APPLICATION. Contact Enerpac when in doubt about applications and
safety precautions.
WARNING
Be certain that ALL system components, including couplers, fittings, pipes,
and tubing, are rated for the maximum operating pressure of the system. The
system operating pressure must not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest
rated component in the system or system failure may occur, resulting in serious
personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING
Always wear proper personal protective gear, when operating hydraulic
equipment.
WARNING
Make sure that all system components are protected from
external sources of damage, such as excessive heat, flame, weld
spatter, moving machine parts, sharp edges, and corrosive
chemicals. Do not expose hoses to temperatures of 150°F [65°C]
or higher.
WARNING
NEVER make or break hydraulic connections while the
system is under pressure.
WARNING
Wear proper personal protective gear when operating
hydraulic equipment.
WARNING
Do not handle hoses under pressure. Replace damaged
hoses immediately. Hydraulic fluid escaping through a small
hole can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. If oil is
injected under the skin, see a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Do not use hydraulic hose to carry hydraulic components
such as pumps or cylinders.
CAUTION
Use only the manufacturer's recommended fluid. Do not mix fluids in a
system. Use only fluids that are compatible with system components, or seals and
hoses will be damaged. Synthetic and fireproof fluids require special seals and
hoses. Contact the nearest authorized service center or the manufacturer for
recommendation.
(2)
INSTALLATION
Hydraulic Hoses
1. Before operating, visually inspect the system.
2. Check to be sure there are no cracks, kinks, cuts, or other damage
which might cause the hose to leak. Rubber guards protect crimped
areas at each end of the hose.
3. Make sure all hose ends, couplers, or union ends are R=4Ω in.
clean and threads are in good condition. R=11,4 cm
4. Hose should not be twisted or bent too sharply. The
bend radius should always be at least 4.5 inches
(11,4 cm). Always use as few bends as possible.
5. Do not drop heavy objects on hose. A sharp impact
may cause internal damage to hose wire strands.
Applying pressure to a damaged hose may cause it
to rupture.
6. Make sure all hose connections between pump and
cylinder are tight and leak free. Do not over-tighten connections or
use tools to tighten connections. Excessive torque may cause
premature thread failure and may cause high pressure fittings to split
at pressure lower than rated capacity. When using quick disconnect
fittings, make sure the fittings are correctly and completely fastened
together.
CAUTION
Use care to ensure that pieces of tape do not enter the hydraulic system.
Pieces of tape in the fluid impairs fluid flow, causing system malfunctions.
(3)
MAINTENANCE
This section refers to components commonly found in a hydraulic system.
General
1. Keep the components clean at all times. Many hydraulic service
problems are caused by dirt and/or metallic particles in the hydraulic
system. To avoid these problems, the use of proper maintenance
including rust prevention and cleanliness will help extend the life of
your hydraulic system.
2. Use only an approved clean hydraulic fluid and change fluid as
recommended by the manufacturer. Change fluids more often if unit is
used under extreme conditions.
3. Change or clean the filter in the system periodically if one is used.
Hydraulic Hoses
1. Hydraulic hoses should be left in carton until needed.
2. Store hoses at a temperature between 50º to 75ºF [10º to 24ºC ] and
at a humidity between 20 and 70 percent.
3. Never store hoses in a hot, damp room, in direct sunlight or near heat
sources.
4. Do not stack hoses. The weight of the pile will tend to flatten the hose
on the bottom. Hanging in a rack is preferred.
5. Do not carry or drag hydraulic assemblies by pulling or pushing on
couplings or hoses.

SAFETY INFORMATION
To avoid personal injury during system operation, read and follow all
CAUTIONS, WARNINGS, and INSTRUCTIONS included with or attached
to each product. ENERPAC CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE
RESULTING FROM UNSAFE USE OF PRODUCT, LACK OF
MAINTENANCE, OR INCORRECT PRODUCT OR SYSTEM
APPLICATION. Contact Enerpac when in doubt about applications and
safety precautions.
WARNING
Be certain that ALL system components, including couplers, fittings, pipes,
and tubing, are rated for the maximum operating pressure of the system. The
system operating pressure must not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest
rated component in the system or system failure may occur, resulting in serious
personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING
Always wear proper personal protective gear, when operating hydraulic
equipment.
WARNING
Make sure that all system components are protected from
external sources of damage, such as excessive heat, flame, weld
spatter, moving machine parts, sharp edges, and corrosive
chemicals. Do not expose hoses to temperatures of 150°F [65°C]
or higher.
WARNING
NEVER make or break hydraulic connections while the
system is under pressure.
WARNING
Wear proper personal protective gear when operating
hydraulic equipment.
WARNING
Do not handle hoses under pressure. Replace damaged
hoses immediately. Hydraulic fluid escaping through a small
hole can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. If oil is
injected under the skin, see a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Do not use hydraulic hose to carry hydraulic components
such as pumps or cylinders.
CAUTION
Use only the manufacturer's recommended fluid. Do not mix fluids in a
system. Use only fluids that are compatible with system components, or seals and
hoses will be damaged. Synthetic and fireproof fluids require special seals and
hoses. Contact the nearest authorized service center or the manufacturer for
recommendation.

INSTALLATION
Hydraulic Hoses
1. Before operating, visually inspect the system.
2. Check to be sure there are no cracks, kinks, cuts, or other damage
which might cause the hose to leak. Rubber guards protect crimped
areas at each end of the hose.
3. Make sure all hose ends, couplers, or union ends are R=4Ω in.
clean and threads are in good condition. R=11,4 cm
4. Hose should not be twisted or bent too sharply. The
bend radius should always be at least 4.5 inches
(11,4 cm). Always use as few bends as possible.
5. Do not drop heavy objects on hose. A sharp impact
may cause internal damage to hose wire strands.
Applying pressure to a damaged hose may cause it
to rupture.
6. Make sure all hose connections between pump and
cylinder are tight and leak free. Do not over-tighten connections or
use tools to tighten connections. Excessive torque may cause
premature thread failure and may cause high pressure fittings to split
at pressure lower than rated capacity. When using quick disconnect
fittings, make sure the fittings are correctly and completely fastened
together.
CAUTION
Use care to ensure that pieces of tape do not enter the hydraulic system.
Pieces of tape in the fluid impairs fluid flow, causing system malfunctions.

MAINTENANCE
This section refers to components commonly found in a hydraulic system.
General
1. Keep the components clean at all times. Many hydraulic service
problems are caused by dirt and/or metallic particles in the hydraulic
system. To avoid these problems, the use of proper maintenance
including rust prevention and cleanliness will help extend the life of
your hydraulic system.
2. Use only an approved clean hydraulic fluid and change fluid as
recommended by the manufacturer. Change fluids more often if unit is
used under extreme conditions.
3. Change or clean the filter in the system periodically if one is used.
Hydraulic Hoses
1. Hydraulic hoses should be left in carton until needed.
2. Store hoses at a temperature between 50º to 75ºF [10º to 24ºC ] and
at a humidity between 20 and 70 percent.
3. Never store hoses in a hot, damp room, in direct sunlight or near heat
sources.
4. Do not stack hoses. The weight of the pile will tend to flatten the hose
on the bottom. Hanging in a rack is preferred.
5. Do not carry or drag hydraulic assemblies by pulling or pushing on
couplings or hoses.
