Specialist Steel Tube Piling Project

Aarsleff Ground Engineering has completed a specialist steel tube piling project to revive an existing crane rail foundation.

Our piling team have completed phase 1 of a restoration project using raked steel tubes.

Split over two phases, TPS Civil Engineering sub-contracted Aarsleff Ground Engineering to help restore the foundations of an existing crane rail at a Port in Stobart, Widnes.

Our specialist piling team worked with our in-house design department to provide a solution that overcame previous failures, caused by the overloading of the existing crane. Aarsleff installed 339No. diameter steel tubular piles using a Junttan piling rig, of which 1 in 8 piles are raked. This method accounted for the higher horizontal loads whilst offering a cost-saving solution.
