Mini Piling Costs
How Much Does Mini Piling Cost?
Often used in tight or restricted areas or where soil conditions are challenging, mini piling provides a cost-effective and less disruptive alternative to other piling methods. When you’re planning an engineering or construction project, budget is often one of the most important elements. However, mini piles cost differently from project to project.
How much does mini piling cost? Here, we discuss 5 factors that can influence the cost of mini piling. Understanding these factors can help project managers and home developers alike to make more accurate and informed decisions.
5 Factors That Influence the Cost of Mini Piling
The cost of mini piling can depend on the following 5 factors:
1. Project Scale and Complexity
Larger projects with a higher number of piles can be more expensive than smaller projects. In addition, complex undertakings with many obstacles or irregular pile arrangements may increase costs due to additional planning and execution challenges.
2. Depth and Diameter of Piles
The size and depth of mini piles directly impact the material and labour costs. Deeper and wider piles require more materials and more specialised machinery, which in turn increases the overall cost.
3. Soil Type
The type of soil is critical as harder, more complex soil conditions require more robust equipment and potentially specialised mini piles. Softer soils might need less intensive labour but could require stabilisation works, which can drive costs.
4. Site Accessibility
Limited access can restrict the types of machinery used and may require smaller, more portable equipment. This limitation often increases the time and complexity of the project, raising costs as a result.
5. Installation Method
The method used to install the mini piles can influence costs. Whether you require Sectional Flight Auger (SFA) pilling, augered piling or mini bottom-driven piling for your project, each method requires different equipment and labour cost implications.
