“Cutting of bored piles Ø 1300 mm, 15 m under the water level” is the job’s title of the German company.
In the job there were 139 drilling piles Ø = 1300mm located in an open excavation pit (160 m length, 20 m width, 15 m depth in the groundwater).
Under instruction of the client – Deutsche Bahn AG – these piles must pass the piles integrity test.
In order to perform this test, all piles must be cut. The level to cut varies according to the concrete overlay.
The task was to saw off the pile until the sound sustainable concrete level is reached.
After finishing the cut/sawing procedure the pile heads are lifted from the excavation pit with the help of a crane and layed down guaranteeing a clear allocation of the corresponding pile head.
