Screw Piles Screw piles can be installed in soft grounds and get relatively high loads both in tension and in compression. They can be installed without vibration and in tight areas. They are cost efficient and reduce environmental impact. Because there is less soil displacement, excess soil does not need to be transported from site,…
Driven Piles Henry Drilling owns and operates a wide selection of vibratory and diesel hammers for the installation of driven H-piles, pipe piles, caissons, sheet piles and timber piles. Some advantages of driven piles are the ability: To verify capacity utilizing PDA testing. To install them in water or in areas with limited access. For…
Continuous Flight Auger Piles Continuous flight auger piles combine the advantages of driven piles with the versatility of bored piles. This drilling method allows piles to be excavated in a wide variety of soils – dry or water-logged, loose or cohesive – and also to penetrate through low-capacity, soft-rock formations, loamy clays, limestones and sandstone, etc.…
Large Diameter Oscillator Piles Henry Foundation Drilling Inc has extensive experience with fully cased large diameter drilled shafts in all sorts of drilling conditions, including large boulders, artesian conditions, loose soils, hard water bearing tills and others. We own 5 oscillators from 1500mm to 3050mm, as well as a large selection of segmental oscillator casing.…
Bored Piles (with or without casing) Bored piles are the most versatile and most used technology in deep foundations around the world. Drilling diameters do not have limits; no permanent – and expensive – steel casing is required. Bored piles can be installed through layers of solid rock and other debris with no vibration and…
Sheet Piles Sheet piles are sections of sheet materials with interlocking edges that are driven into the ground to provide earth retention, excavation support or support for foundations. Sheet piles are most commonly made of steel and can be installed via top driving or vibratory methods. Sheet piles are used in both permanent and temporary…
Soldier Piles and Lagging Soldier pile and lagging is an earth retention system consisting of wide flange or H-Pile steel beams driven or placed in drilled holes. After the soldier beams have been installed, the earth is excavated in lifts along one side of the beams to expose a cut face of earth, and to partially expose the front faces…
Secant Piles There are many benefits to secant pile walls, including increased construction alignment flexibility, increased wall stiffness compared to sheet piles, ease of installation in difficult ground (cobbles/boulders), and they can be used in high water table conditions with little dewatering. Applications for secant pile walls include shoring, large diameter access shafts, large storage tanks,…
