No matter how unsuitable the ground condition is, mini piling can be the solution for creating strong foundations for all types of structures. This innovative method involves driving or screwing large steel casings deep into the ground and filling them up with concrete to form reliable piles.

A structural engineer plays a crucial role in determining the layout, diameter, and amount of support required for structures. Factors like access, ground condition, and the nature of the structure are carefully considered to ensure safety and stability. The depth of the piles used for support depends on the type of ground and its condition.

When is Mini Piling needed?

Mini piling is the perfect solution when adding new structures to a property built on piled foundations. It ensures that the new structure is constructed in the same way, avoiding any damage to underground services or tree roots. This method effectively eliminates the risk of subsidence and provides secure foundations for the future.

Bottom Driven Piles Oldham

Bottom driven piles are a reliable and cost-effective solution for building durable foundations and providing essential support to structures. These piles effectively transfer the weight onto suitable rock and soil layers, ensuring stability and strength. They are not only ideal for bridges, walls, and buildings, but can also be used in anchorage structures, retaining walls, and embankments.

In order for foundations to be considered as piled, the depth must be at least three times bigger than the breadth. Bottom driven piles are slim, long columns made from a predetermined material that can be installed by pushing, vibrating, or hammering directly into the ground. Sometimes pre drilling is required to reach the desired depth in dense ground.
