Piling with Down The Hole Hammer is growing solution for foundation piles in rocky and mixed soil types, where rock contact is necessary. Geonex provides armament and consultation for modifying Kelly Bar, CFA and Impact Piling rigs for Hammer Drilling applications.
VERTICAL DTH-DRILLING
PRODUCTS
Softer ground conditions require a stabilizing technique before construction. The technique is to drill casing tubes through the overburden to the solid bedrock and fill them with concrete. Pile foundations are principally used to transfer the loads from superstructures, through weak, compressible strata or water onto stronger, more compact, less compressible and stiffer soil or rock at depth, increasing the effective size of a foundation and resisting horizontal loads. Whatever your vertical drilling applications may be, we have vertical drilling solutions to help control your project.
6 x Key benefits
-
To the right depth
Drilled piles are installed through all soil layers to the desired depth, even all the way to bedrock.
-
For all soil types
Works well, when the soil contains obstacles, which are difficult to penetrate such as gobbles, boulders etc.
-
For large diameters
Pile diameters can go up to 1220 mm.
-
Safe foundations
Piles bear securely on bedrock and they can carry high loads, which leads to reduced pile amount.
-
Precision piling
The piles have high precision and quality requirements.
-
For urban environment
Piling work can be carried out near existing buildings or structures, where there are strict requirements for the environmental impacts of the piling.
