The ICE Specification for Piling and Embedded Retaining Walls (SPERW) is the latest version of this successful specification which was first published in 1988 and subsequently revised in 1996. The latest edition has been updated to reflect the latest piling techniques and procurement methods used in the UK foundations market and to accommodate the introduction of European standards - which provide common structural design rules for everyday use in the design of whole structures and component products. This book is intended for use as a technical specification for piling and embedded walling works either on land or near to shore. It comprises three parts. Part A offers general guidance, describing the requirements typically necessary for a successful construction of piling and embedded retaining walls. Detail is given on the tendering process, design responsibility and on issues such as safety, quality and the environment. Part B is the main technical specification - 19 parts in total - advocated for use on piling and embedded retaining walls work in the UK. It covers the most common testing methods and materials used in these types of foundation works. Part C provides specific guidance on the use of each of the 19 parts of the specification. The guidance collates the experiences of the contractors and consultants involved for many years with piling and embedded retaining walls.
