Aarsleff deployed 5 machines to ensure the piling programme was met without any delays using a Hitachi excavator to offload the steel sheet sections, their Soiltek drilling rig to conduct pre-boring, a Sennebogen crane to handle and pitch the piles and a leader rig to install and back install the steel sheet sections using driving vibratory hammer.

Lincolnshire County Council recently commenced work on its £2.4M valued A17 Sleaford Bypass Embankment Repairs Scheme, part of which involves a complex section of slope stabilisation as the dual carriageway crosses over both the London and North Eastern Railway and East Midlands Trains’ Peterborough-Lincoln Line. The scheme has involved a series of sheet piling which has seen the geotechnical subcontract awarded to Aarsleff, who worked on the embankment opposite the A153 overbridge and the railway bridge to install 413 No. steel sheet piles using their Movax rig to form a retaining a wall.

Residential Structure, Greater Manchester

Our Role: Sheet Piling Contractor
Location: Stockport, Greater Manchester, UK

From June to July 2023, Aarsleff were contracted to install 143m of sheet piling for a new residential structure. It was initially proposed that the sheets be driven using a Movax attachment to an excavator, which is effective in soils of low to medium strength. To ensure the most efficient delivery, it was identified that designed pile toe level must be above this 7.9m level, which our design engineers achieved through an effective and economic design.
