CFA Piling
CFA, also known as auger cast piling, is a Piling in Birmingham technique used to create concrete foundations. It begins with the shafts being drilled deep into the ground, with a single-stemmed auger. Then once they are ready, cement is poured into them. After that, reinforced steel cages are put into the wet column to create piles that can uplift lateral loads. To maximize efficiency, the drilling process is monitored by a computerized system. The data collected during the process is compared with the targeted requirements, so we can create foundations that maintain the structural stability of the building. As it is a vibration-free process, it is ideal for construction in urban areas.
Contiguous Piling
These contiguous piles are built in such a sequence that they are almost touching each other. With no more than 50-150mm gap between each of them, filled with exposed soil. However, if the client needs a water-tight wall, our piling contractors Birmingham can seal or grout them to meet this requirement of the project. They are installed using the CFA or rotary bored techniques. Hence, they require the least amount of time to be constructed. So, if you’re out there finding Piling Birmingham services that are done in less time with a low budget, this is your way to go.
Mini piled Underpinning
This particular technique is used when the load needs to be transferred from the existing foundation to stable grounds, at depths more than 5 meters. In order to do that, a needle beam is cast through the hole drilled into the ground from the existing foundation. This gives it additional support, and the foundation can uplift lateral loads. These mini piles are placed adjacent to each other on every side of the foundation. Reinforced steel is cast through which allows these piles to bear tension and maintain a strong foundation.
Reinforced Concrete Foundations
These concrete piles will give you the ultimate concrete foundations, especially when you’re constructing superstructures such as extremely tall buildings or bridges, in poor ground conditions. We, as the best pilings company in Birmingham, will assist you in deciding a well-suited package for you. As for the method, it begins by drilling shafts into the ground until they reach the required depth. Then, they are filled with cement and steel cages are put into the wet cement column. Once it dried up, it’s set to uplift lateral loads in poor quality of upper layers’ soil.
