144 No 220mm diameter bottom driven steel cased mini piles were installed to depths in the region of 10Lm though pre-excavated holes through an existing factory yard to support pilecaps on top of which a steel portal frame extension to the factory will be constructed. Three rigs were used to ensure the works were completed within three weeks.
A swallow hole appeared beneath the patio area of a domestic bungalow, which undermined the existing foundations. The hole was grouted and then the foundations of the bungalow underpinned to prevent any future settlements.
A bungalow suffered subsidence due to localised softening of the bearing strata due to damaged and leaking drainage. Piles and reinforce concrete needle beams were installed externally to the property to prevent further settlement of the structure.
Piled, reinforced concrete ground beams installed on a site to support a small development of domestic dwellings. Piling was required due to poor ground conditions with insufficient bearing capacity.
A restricted access site between two existing properties required mini-piled foundations to prevent undermining of the neighbouring properties by means of deep excavated trenches. Clay ground conditions required an augered mini pile solutions using a small lightweight piling rig.
Due to a tree preservation order, deep excavations were not permitted for the above development and therefore a piled reinforced concrete slab was constructed. This minimised the potential damage to the tree roots and kept the excavations into the ground within the allowed depths.
A challenging site which clients wanted to construct a property on a steep slope. Driven piles were installed using a small rig, which could access the restricted areas. Reinforced concrete ground beams were constructed however ‘steps’ in the beams were required to follow the slope of the ground.
Due to the presence of drainage running underneath the proposed conservatory piled foundations were utilised to allow the foundations to be cast so that the foundation could ’span’ over the drainage without damaging it.
A new extension was constructed to the front and rear of a property, which had been constructed on piles, therefore a piled solution was required. 150mm diameter bottom driven steel cased mini piles installed using a Grundomat piling hammer and reinforced ground beams were constructed and cast to support the new extensions.
Bottom driven mini piles were installed through pre augered holes to ensure a sufficient depth of pile was achieved on site through potentially obstructed ground.
