Driven piles are a widely utilised foundation piling method, which involves the insertion of piles into the ground through driving or hammering techniques using vibration. This method is particularly advantageous for non-cohesive soils, regions with elevated water tables, and areas containing contaminated soil. As experienced piling contractors, GTM Piling Ltd recommends driven piles when a strong and stable foundation is required in challenging soil environments.
Driven piles can be cast in position using temporary or permanent steel casing. Alternatively, they can be pre-cast off-site using materials such as steel, timber, concrete, or a combination of the three. This versatile piling method is ideal for large-scale projects requiring deep foundations and is a key part of our piling services in Ormskirk and surrounding areas.
Screw piles provide an efficient and sustainable approach to piled foundations. These piles use circular hollow galvanised steel shafts with one or more helices that are screwed into the ground. Similar to how a screw fastens into wood, screw piles are rotated into the soil to achieve the required depth and load-bearing capacity.
One of the main advantages of screw piles is that they generate minimal spoil during installation, making them an environmentally friendly and cost-effective alternative to traditional foundation piling. This method is particularly suitable for sites with limited access or environmentally sensitive areas. GTM Piling Ltd offers expert screw piling services as part of our broader foundation solutions across the North West.
Grundomat piling refers to a specialised technique that uses compressed air to drive steel tubes deep into the ground. This method is ideal for confined or restricted areas where traditional piling machinery may not be feasible. The compressed air is generated by a compact machine located outside the work area, ensuring efficient pile driving even in tight spaces.
During the installation of grundomat piles, steel tubes ranging from 100 mm to 150 mm in diameter are driven into the ground. Additional tube sections are welded as needed to reach the desired design depth. This piling technique is particularly useful for mini piling and underpinning in urban environments or locations with space limitations.
