Combine strategic vision and technical mastery on each project
The work included the installation of a Berlin-type retaining wall, consisting of 96 bored piles and 48 driven piles, covering an area of 4,745 m². Some driven piles were specifically designed to support underpinning loads, in addition to providing ground support. In addition, more than 320 rock anchors were installed to counteract soil thrust and ensure the stability of the excavation.
A job done according to the rules of the art
The excavation reached a total depth of 24.5 m, requiring the driving of 12 structural driven piles to serve as foundations for a portion of the building. Thanks to our expertise in Berlin walls, driven piles, and anchors, we were able to meet the technical requirements of this major project.
