Site Conditions for Shoring Work and Materials Needed for Secant Shoring

Image
  When a building is built on sandy soil or soft ground, at such times, it becomes necessary to construct a secant pile wall. Secant pile wall, ensure that the structure behind the wall would remain proper and it won't have the risk of falling due to high lateral pressure working.    This work is carried under the expert supervision of a quality engineer, construction manager, safety officers, and skilled labor. For this work, rotary drilling rigs ensure that the soil remains firm and the surrounding structures are not disturbed.    This article will explain the site conditions for performing the  shoring work  and the material needed to construct   sheet piles in Dubai .     Site condition for shoring work The subsurface of the area is made up of loose sand accumulating on the top layer. The medium and the layer below are made up of the formation of calcarenite and sandstone over time.   The reason to construct ...

What is a Bored Cast in Situ Concrete pile?

Construction activities are rather expensive. They can get more expensive if there are errors in the process. In order to eliminate errors, a Bored Cast in Situ Concrete Pile is constructed primarily by digging a hole in the ground. This hole in the ground is made keeping in mind the type of the ground. Means such as percussive or rotary method with the help of permanent or temporary casing or even drilling the mud are used for this purpose. Once the hole has been made, construction experts from piling companies in UAE get together and decide if the location and dimensions of it are right or no. On finalising it, the hole is then filled with reinforced concrete. Continue reading
