Pile Driving
In marine structures, the construction of pile foundations is a work method for which we have developed extensive expertise, as well as gained large experience in deep foundations using driven metallic piles which are installed offshore.
We developed essentially two pile-driving methods, according to the type of foundation soils:
· Piles driven into inconsistent soils (sand/silt/clay)
· Piles driven into a rocky substrate (with rock drilling)
Pile Driving
We have equipment for driving metallic piles, vibrofonceurs and hammers, enabling us to drive piles up to 1,300 mm in diameter, with a sleeve thickness of up to 25 mm.
The length of the piles depends on the foundation soil's conditions. In some projects, we have installed piles longer than 50 m.
