Each pile requires specific marking, including manufacturing details, dimensions, and grade. Delivery is mandated within 60 days of order issuance, with a 3-day notification to the consignee. Quality assurance involves strict inspection for defects such as manufacturing non-conformance, diameter variations, weight discrepancies, wall thickness issues, and coating damage, with repair provisions for certain defects. Submittals include certificates of conformance and manufacturer's literature for paints.
