Restricted access piling provides a range of piling and other geotechnical solutions in operationally constrained, restricted environments such as inside existing buildings, under bridges and in tunnels and basements, as well as off-track rail environments.
Restricted access can in many instances include restrictions both in terms of width, height and weight, with height restrictions as low as 2.4m.
This work is carried out by our fleet of smaller, more specifically equipped rigs where large, heavy conventional plant cannot be used. Typically with much lower bearing pressures. A broad range of drilled piling techniques are adopted suited to nearly all ground conditions and include:
Additionally, we offer soil nails and ground anchors for slope stabilisation and drilling and grouting techniques for ground stabilisation projects required for large civil engineering projects, such as motorway expansion and embankment cutting, as well as new-build residential schemes.
Our Hütte and Klemm rigs use several different down-the-hole tools (including Duplex and Odex systems and Elemex hammers) to form piles of up to 900mm in diameter to depths of 35m.
Our helical piling specialists, ScrewFast foundations make up part of our specialist piling services.
We provide customers with a differentiated and highly professional service, including:
