Dubai has witnessed the building of towers that are more than 100m high. With this, the architecture concepts are regularly being challenged with towers getting taller and complex. The various risks emanate from more complex structural engineering practices mounting challenge in loads to be resisted by their foundations. One of the areas of interest that has captivated world attention is the use of piling technologies. A good piling company in Dubai will use its distinct characteristic to withstand strong winds, sandstorms, and unstable ground conditions to erect architectural marvels in the form of high-rise buildings. What makes the piling...

Foundation offers support to the building by transferring their load to soil or rocks that have sufficient bearing capacity. The piling companies in Dubai believe that there is no formula for determining the depth of the structure. Instead, it depends upon different considerations like Nature of load that requires support Ground Conditions Water presence Space availability Accessibility Vulnerability to noise and vibration The expert piling Services Company should be consulted to determine the depth of foundation required for a particular structure. Broadly, the foundations can be categorized as 1 Shallow Foundation This foundation is used where the loads imposed by the structure are less as compared to the bearing capacity of the surface. 2 Deep Foundation The deep foundation is mandatory when the bearing capacity of the soil is not sufficient to support the loads imposed on a structure. These loads need to be transferred to the deeper layers of soil that have hig...

In the field of civil engineering, safety plays an important role in the overall construction and infrastructure/property development process, as it reduces the uncertainty factor. In piling works , it is important to precisely determine the factor of safety. Proficient piling contractors in Dubai can help you to do that. The Important features that affect the safety factor There are several factors upon which the safety depends upon The kind of structure whether it is temporary or permanent The Sensitivity of the structure The Extent of soil exploration Nature of loading considering the assumption The Extent of quality control during the construction phase It is recommended that the factor of safety should lie between 2 and 4.
