Avonmouth Plot 3 Case Study
Ground improvement and piling works for an industrial, logistics and office space.
SCOPE OF WORKS: 2447 No. 250mm² DPC piles and 574 No. 300mm² DPC piles. 841 traditional rigid inclusions and 1260 hybrid inclusions
CLIENT: McLaren Construction
CHALLENGES: Tight seven-week program, high production targets, and unexpected obstructions.
The Avonmouth Plot 3 Matrix 49 project involved ground improvement and piling works for an industrial, logistics and office space. The project was divided into three key areas: superstructure and internals, which required driven pre-cast piles; an external concrete yard, which utilised rigid inclusions; and an external asphalt access road, car park, and fire track, where hybrid inclusions were installed.
The scope of works included extensive driven piling with a total of 2447 No. 250mm² DPC piles and 574 No. 300mm² DPC piles. Testing was a crucial part of the process, involving four static load tests and sixty dynamic load tests. Additionally, rigid and hybrid inclusions were installed, totalling 841 traditional rigid inclusions and 1260 hybrid inclusions. This scope of works also involved a high frequency of verification testing of the installed DPC piles and inclusions.
