Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing a foundation element in the ground, wherein a hole is formed in the ground which is filled with a hardenable filling mass in order to form the foundation element. According to the invention provision is made in that prior to the hardening of the filling mass a data carrier is introduced into the hole, on which information on the produced foundation element is stored .

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for producing a foundation element in the ground, in which a hole is formed in the ground that is filled with a hardenable filling mass in order to form the foundation element,
wherein prior to the hardening of the filling mass a data carrier is introduced into the hole and
on the data carrier information on the produced foundation element is permanently stored,
wherein
on the data carrier at least dimensions of the produced foundation element are permanently stored as information,
wherein after hardening of the filling mass the information on the data carrier is unalterable as an electronic certification,
wherein the foundation element is produced as a bored pile by means of a drilling apparatus or as a diaphragm wall segment by means of a diaphragm wall apparatus, and wherein on completion of the production of the foundation element the data carrier is directly written by a data transmission means on the drilling apparatus or the diaphragm wall apparatus.

2. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein
after hardening of the filling mass the data carrier can be wirelessly queried.

3. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein
the data carrier is designed as an RFID-chip which, on receiving a corresponding electromagnetic signal, automatically transmits a response signal with the stored information.

4. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein
as information construction, production data and/or load-bearing capacity data of the foundation element are stored.

5. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein
the written data carrier is directly introduced into the hole in the ground by a delivery means on the drilling apparatus or the diaphragm wall apparatus.

6. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein
the data carrier is attached to a reinforcement element which is introduced into the hole in order to form the foundation element.

7. A foundation element, produced pursuant to a method according to claim 1 , which is formed by filling a hole in the ground with a hardenable mass,
wherein
the formed foundation element is provided with a data carrier, on which information on the produced foundation element is permanently stored as an electronic certification.

8. A device for producing a foundation element in the ground, in particular pursuant to a method according to claim 1 , having a ground working tool for producing a hole in the ground and a filling means for introducing a hardenable filling mass in order to form the foundation element in the ground,
wherein
the device is designed as a drilling apparatus or a diaphragm wall apparatus,
in that a data transmission means is provided for transmitting information on the produced foundation element to a data carrier which is designed to be arranged and remain in the foundation element after hardening of the filling mass, and
in that on completion of the production of the foundation elements the data carrier is written by the data transmission means on the drilling apparatus or the diaphragm wall apparatus.

9. The device according to claim 8 ,
wherein
a delivery means is provided, with which the data carrier with the stored information is introduced into the hole in the ground prior to the hardening of the filling mass.
