Depth, diameter and cage position, confirmed while the hole is open.
Piers appear on Austral lots where the footing has to reach through fill or soft ground toward the creek lines, and on the deeper stepped footings we see around the perimeter beams here. Depth is the whole exercise, and it is the single thing nobody can confirm once concrete is in the hole.
Annotated findings from Bored piers inspections on Austral builds. Client addresses withheld.

Under an hour on a standard lot, longer where the pier count is high or the site is hard to move around.
The measured figure goes beside the required figure in the report. Proposing the remedy belongs to the builder and their engineer.
No. Observations are recorded against the engineering; certification is an engineer's function and the report says where one is needed.
It can be, since concrete placed into water loses strength at the base. Recording it lets it be pumped before the pour.
As little as a day. Piers are often bored and filled inside two days, so call when the date is set rather than when it is certain.
Your lot's engineering with pier depths, diameters and positions. Without it we can describe what is there but not confirm it.
