There is a natural equilibrium for efficient and economic foundation design: if you keep the pile diameters small, and the length around four metres, you get a very efficient pile. Then if you assume ...

The falling oil prices may have caused delays and snags across the construction industry in the GCC, but nothing is going to detract from project development in the region, and stricter deadlines for ...

The integration of sophisticated software and monitoring systems in modern piling equipment allows for precise control and real-time monitoring of the piling process. IQIP’s SMART Pile Monitoring ...

Piling contractors Gauteng Piling provided the foundation auger-cast piles for the latest extension to the Cresta Shopping Centre, completed in April, on the border of Northcliff and Cresta, in ...

An optimal coal pile design takes into account the site-specific (and often conflicting) needs of a new power plant early in its design — rather than using whatever land is available after the plant ...
