Key Points:
- 750+ Rotary Bored Piles
- 650+ CFA Piles
- Team of 3 Engineers
- 25 Weeks total across 2 Phases
The Rivenhall IWMF and Energy Centre aims to convert 595,000 tonnes of waste through sustainable waste management. As part of this project Bauer were appointed the piling works which consisted of a first visit to install 166 Rotary Bored Contiguous Piles at 1200mm diameter for the bunker/boiler wall and 277 slab piles at 900mm diameter to a maximum 35 metre depth completing the main bunker structure. As well as the main bunker piles, further 1000+ piles were installed using a mixture of CFA and RBP ranging between 450mm-900mm in diameter to complete the other structures required. With a final revisit to complete CFA piles on a higher level not accessible on the main phase of works.
Our team provided Bauer with a comprehensive engineering package, covering all aspects of setting out. From the setting out of each pile, including monitoring the position and verticality of both the casings and the rig itself. To providing a full and detailed site wide As-Built report, additionally taking on all dig depth, cage plunge depth and feet length calculations where required. This allowed the Bauer site supervisors more time to focus on other areas of the project, maintaining both the high site safety standards and overcoming the complex site logistics.
We would like to thank all at Bauer for the opportunity to work alongside them on this Project and especially Oje Unuigbe, Leon Ferriera and Ash Granger.
