Types of piling

The highly versatile CFA piling technique has become the most widely used bored piling system in the UK.

Bored piles are installed using high torque piling rigs where structural requirements dictate higher bearing loads and or pile lengths need to penetrate hard rock layers, boulders and overcome underground obstructions.

Typically steel sheet piles are installed as temporary or permanent retaining structures within both marine and land based environments to suit most ground conditions.

This method of pile installation has become increasingly popular in dense urban areas where piling noise and vibration can be an issue. Advances in the technology means that tubular sections are becoming a viable option for this technique.
