BORED PILE METHODOLOGY
Bored piles are used when a soil replacement

rather than a soil displacement method of
piling is required and also when there is a
need to minimize vibration. They are unsuitable
where the ground water level on the retained
side is high.
The best application is for the cohesive soils. The
reader should refer to BS8004 for the construction
of bored piles.
The advantage of the bored piles is that only one
pile needed to be bored at a time. Therefore
when working close to a foundation only a short
length of foundation need to be exposed to any
risk at a given time.
It is also easier to overcome ground obstruction
than with sheet pilling or diaphragm walls. Also
bored piles are able to penetrate moderately
hard bedrock materials more easily than other
methods.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
DRIVEN PILE METHODOLOGY
Driven piles are executed in situ without the necessity

for soil removal. These are prefabricated and cured
before delivery to the site. Driven pile shapes and
lengths vary as required on the site.
Pile driving is carried out by means of diesel or hydraulic
hammer. Using such techniques on the purpose made.
Precast concrete piles may be classified concrete pile.
Due to constraints in the driving methodology, square
pile dimensions are usually limited to 300, 400 &
450 mm. These precast piles are usually driven to a
depth of 25 to 30 meters.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
PILE DYNAMIC ANALYSIS (PDA) METHODOLOGY
Pile dynamic testing (PDA) or Dynamic load testing

has its primary goal of assessing the pile bearing
capacity of pile integrity and pile settlement. It is
applicable to both cast in situ piles and drilled
shafts and impact driven piles. The test involves a
substantial ram mass pile hammer impacting the
pile top and causing the pile to mobilize and
experience at least a small permanent set.
Dynamic measurements are taken, and an evaluated
based on closed form solutions of the wave equation.
Measurements are conducted and analysis are
carried out by single piece of equipment: THE PILE
DRIVING ANALYZER.

SOIL CEMENT COLUMN METHODOLOGY
Soil consolidation or soil cement column technology

falls within the field of soft cohesive soil
consolidation by means of mechanical mixing.
During the drilling process, the soil is churned up by
the rotation of a special bladed tool and mixed with
low pressure injected cement power as the string
is removed.
By mixing the soil and cement together with water,
a stable and reinforced mass is quickly produced
by the hydrating reaction.
Soil cement column technology allows the production
of columns of soil consolidated, soil diameters up to
1000 mm and for depths exceeding 25 meters.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
MICROPILE METHODOLOGY
Micropiles enables solutions for foundation problems

which could not be faced by other techniques, thanks
to the possibility of using equipment with reduced
overall dimensions and causing the minimum
disturbance to the soil and existing building.
The equipment is especially suitable for soils which
can be drilled by means of the rotation technique.
In this case, the same steel tube which will form the
micropile reinforcement is used as the drill string
when boring. To facilitate this, a lead section is
fitted with a diamond bit which is extracted after
drilling. Corresponding to this active section, the
tube is equipped with a special non-return valves
located within the tube thickness in order to prevent
damage during drilling.
The valves facilitates the subsequent grouting and
re-grouting of the micropiles as when necessary.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
JET GROUTING METHODOLOGY
Grouting is a procedure by means of which grout is

injected into voids, fissures, specially to reduce
permeability, to increase the strength or lessen the
deformability in the soil formations. In order to
achieve the intended purpose, bore hole are drilled
to the formation, and the grout is injected under
pressure until the voids around the injected section
are filled to satisfy the conditions of the specified
design.

DIAPHRAGM WALL METHODOLOGY
Diaphragm walls are prepared of the surface by

excavating a vertical trench supported by slurry
instead of bracing to the required depth of a
wall. The structure is constructed in this slot by
the simultaneously extrusion of the supporting
slurry. This slurry not only provides the stability
of the trench, but might also become the final
structure. Generally, trenching consists of two
operations, excavation followed by the filling of
the slot. Soil is removed by special excavators
whose modes of operation might differ.
Diaphragm walls are applicable in practically
every soil condition with the possible
exception of very soft clay, peat. Also, a
concrete diaphragm wall is much more rigid
than either a soldier pile wall or an interlocked steel sheet pile, and therefore can be
used to minimizing settlement and lateral
movement of adjacent ground and structure
during construction especially in soft soil.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
STONE COLUMN METHODOLOGY
Ground improvement is effected by a powerful like

torpedo shaped vibrating poker (vibroflot). This
either creates a void in which a compacted stone
is formed (vibrodisplacement) its energy compact
the in-situ soil (vibrocompaction). In certain soft
clay or alluvial soils, a water flush is used to keep
the holes formed by the vibroflot stable and to
wash out some of the clay replacing it with compact stone column (vibroplacement wet). A
variation on its theme is the bottom feed
technique where the stone is placed through the
bottom of the vibroflot itself, nullifying the need
for water.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
OFFSHORE DRILLING METHODOLOGY
Offshore piles range from small diameter to large

diameter piles. Offshore pilling works necessitate
the use of a full type steel casing driven to the
appropriate depth by hydraulic loading, vibro
hammer, or twisting the casing by an oscillator
until it reaches the stability of the shaft. A working
barge of 900 - 1,200 DWT or a self - elevating
pontoon platform is used in marine piling works.
The barge is equipped with hoist and fabricated
leg for stability during drilling. Offshore drilling
commonly requires the deployment of a tug boat
for the positioning of the barge, dump barge for
the excavated soil materials, floaters, catwalk
and buoyant materials.

TELS: 886-3438 / 886-3439 / 886-3440 / 886-3472 / 886-3473
SOIL INVESTIGATION METHODOLOGY
Soil investigation is the extraction and thorough

examination of soil formation in the vicinity of
the proposed structure. This is necessary prior
to designing the structure foundation.
A special drilling equipment mounted with a drill
bit fitted to a special casing is used to obtain soil
samples. The open end of the drill allows the
soil to enter the split casing, thus, recovering the
disturbed formation of the soil below.
Several test are conducted to the soil samples
recovered to the site and in the laboratory.
These tests include the standard penetration
test, atterberg limit, seive analysis, moisture
content, etc.

DEMOLITION WORKS
Demolition consists of the removal wholly or in part,

and satisfactory disposal of all buildings, fences
structures, old pavements, abandoned pipe lines
and any other obstructions which are not designated
or permitted to remain except for the obstruction
to be removed and disposal of other items in the
contract. It shall also include the salvaging of
designated material and backfilling the resulting
trenches, holes and pits.

SLOPE PROTECTION
During excavation works, possible collapse of soil takes place which may include damage to
adjacent structures. In this regard, slope protection measures are undertaken to ensure
safety and manageability. Works may executed by various methods: construction of
diaphragm walls, retaining walls, trenching and shotcreting.
