I have been politely and probably correctly been taken to task on these pages for over-thinking stuff. And, I have responded Today, luckily, I have been found guilty of the above crime. Going over and over the levels for the piling mat and subsequent foundations - and getting errors - I decided to do some of the simple things that coders are taught to find errors in JavaScript or Flash Action Script. Print the levels out on a separate piece of paper. Read them 'differently' Make a separate sketch diagram : compare that with what you've got Annotate the diagrams you have got : use a pencil - don't look at the screen Go away and have a cup of tea and walk the dogs : forget the damn thing Sleep on it: and try not to let the niggle keep you awake : fail Sod it: email the architect - 'I expect I'm making some sort of stupid error, so would you help me .... this is what I have done to try and solve the problem for myself.....' 'Yes, here's the diagram... not to worry, this has the correct levels on it' I had been looking at 1100.D.7 for a few weeks. The correct file to look at was 1100.D.7B I know all the levels off by heart now........ FFL 27.650, Piling mat level 27525, Top of Pile 26925, Top of Pile Cap 27225. I could go on. Good for the soul this kind of stuff. Good for the soul.
