Project Brief
Green Piling was appointed to deliver an efficient and sustainable foundation solution for the Cross Bank housing development. The project required a groundworks approach that would maintain site stability, reduce environmental impact, and allow for rapid progress. Our precast driven pile and ring beam system provided an ideal solution.
Key Requirements
- A foundation system that would work with the site’s imported material cap.
- A fast-track installation to meet tight development timelines.
- A method that minimised disruption and environmental impact.
Results
The innovative piling and foundation system significantly streamlined the project, reducing both time and cost compared to conventional strip footings. By maintaining the integrity of the imported material, the solution simplified site management and minimized environmental impact. The Green Piling team worked closely with the developers to ensure a seamless process from design to installation.
Client testimonial
“The build solution offered by Green Piling suited the projects specific requirements perfectly. The driven pile and pre-cast ring beam system allowed the imported material, used to cap off the made ground below, to remain in place. This method simplified and de-risked the Earthworks Strategy and Material Management Plan considerably. It also resulted a cost saving, and a significant time reduction compared to strip footings.
Green Piling delivered an excellent service from the first meeting, and we will explore the use of their G-sPan system on all our future projects.”
