After recent rain I decided to move the pier. The process of removing the micropiles was very straightforward, and I took the opportunity to bolt the pier directly to the footing. I hope this will add stability.
I haven't tested yet, but it's very solid now. It still vibrates if I give it a tap, but I'm not sure if this is unavoidable. It this normal? When I say tap, I mean a moderately strong hit with my hand. The NEQ6 head vibrates for several seconds before settling. It seems to settle more quickly after this second installation.
Sorry about the sideways pics, can't rotate them as attachments...
