The right pile, driven right.
The success of any build depends on getting the foundations right. We advise on, design and install the right piles for your project, and our large fleet of rigs means fast turnaround and cost-effective solutions.
Driven piles are pushed into the ground rather than bored out of it, so there are no arisings to dispose of. They’re typically the first choice in made ground, sands and gravels, contaminated land and ground with a high water table.
- No spoilDisplacement piles leave nothing to cart away, saving on disposal costs.
- Fast on siteRapid installation keeps your programme moving.
- Ideal for contaminated groundDisplacement piles are the preferred option where spoil would need special handling.
Driven pilesThree ways to drive
Choose the pile that suits the ground.
Each system has its own strengths, from heavy loads on large open sites to obstructed ground and lighter structures. Not sure which you need? Our engineers will recommend one.
Pre-cast concrete
Square concrete piles driven by accelerated top hammers. Usually the most economical option on larger open sites.
Pre-cast concrete → 02Thickwall steel tube
For ground with hard bands or obstructions that would stop a concrete pile, or designs with high lateral loads.
Thickwall steel tube → 03Steel cased
A straightforward, cost-effective choice for lighter loads, with casings in any length and a wide range of diameters.
