CommercialLeisure & sporting venues
Ready for opening day.
Sporting and leisure buildings carry heavy, concentrated loads across long spans: stands, roofs, terracing and plant. Below ground, that means piles designed precisely for the structure above and installed to a programme that can’t slip.
Our work in the sector includes piled foundations for the new grandstand at Exeter Chiefs’ Sandy Park stadium, a golf driving range in Chatham and a public house in Canterbury. From a single venue extension to a new stand, we design the piles in-house and install them with our own crews.
- Heavy loads, big spansPiles and caps engineered for stands, roofs and terracing.
- Working around the calendarPiling planned around fixtures, events and the off-season.
- Design includedOur engineers design the piles and RC elements, or we install to your engineer’s design.
On venue projectsWhat we plan for
No surprises below ground.
Venues often stay open while work goes on around them. These are the pressures we plan for before we mobilise.
Fixed deadlines
A season opener or a booked event doesn’t move. We programme the piling so the structure can follow on without delay.
Augered piling →Live venues
Spectators, staff and members nearby. Low-noise, low-vibration methods and careful site management keep disruption down.
Screw piling →Concentrated loads
Stand columns, roof supports and plant bases need properly engineered piles, caps and ground beams.
RC foundations →Typical servicesFor leisure & sporting venues
The right method for the site.
Every venue is different, so we recommend a solution once we’ve seen your ground investigation and loads.
Flexible construction packagesYour project, your way
Let’s get your project off the ground.
We can deliver the full package below ground, from design calculations and mini piling to reinforced concrete works, or install piles to your own engineer’s design. Either way, your building gets foundations that stand the test of time.
