GENERAL
1.1 General
For the Olkaria Ⅳ Geothermal Power Plant Project, pile foundation will be needed to support the
buildings and concrete structures depending on sub-soil condition.
The allowable pile capacity was calculated base on soil investigation results which will be submitted
as separate report(Doc No. ZP00700-B2CE-ECG-RPT-0001).
In consideration of sub-soil condition, the various bored pile will be adopted.
