Steel cased piles 65mm dia to 220mm dia using a range of hammers

Steel cased piles are bottom driven thin wall tubes from 1.6mm to 3.2mm thick. These are installed with mini-tracked piling rigs or with our in-house designed Mantis rig which can handle 5.0M long sections.

An internal drop hammer is used to drive a dry concrete plug at the base of the pile. Axial loads of up to 500KN can be achieved by using a combination of driving "sets" and hammer drops the pile is driven to the working load required normally with a safety factor of 2.5 or 3.0.Small diameter steel cased piles are cost effective even on very small projects due to the extreme portability of the rigs and equipment.
