This post features a couple of short videos (no voiceover) highlighting two key stages of sheet‑piling installation: the pre‑drilling process and the final vibrating stage that seats the pile at the specified design RL.
From safety to sheet piles to managing vibration monitors, this update covers details of our site prep work. If you're curious about what actually goes into getting a site ready for retention piling work, this one's for you.
Egnyte confirmed our account was cancelled and gave us a date to delete our data. Then they sent an invoice. Here's what we experienced, and what you need to know before you sign.
See how the team installed and aligned 7m sheet piles using vibration, checked plumb and square placement, adjusted to protect the fence line, and finished to the required RL—especially in tight access areas.
After heavy rain flooded the site, we had the platform re-certified by the geotech engineer. Today we added road base, improved drainage, and installed vibration monitoring so piling can start smoothly.
Good morning! Yesterday we completed the CBR Type 2.3 layer (300mm) and rolled it with minimal vibration. Today we met the geotech for a proof roll, found one soft spot, and arranged steel plates for safe piling and sheet piling.
Only a few trucks are running today while quarry deliveries arrive tomorrow. We’re compacting sand, rolling the driveway, and shaping a ramp so trucks can access the site safely—without getting stuck.
Today’s work is focused on building a certified 250kPa platform to support a larger piling rig. The goal is to reduce vibration impacts on neighbouring homes and prepare the site for upcoming sheet piling works.
An update on our platform preparation works, including bulk earthworks, excavation quantities, bearing platform requirements, and the next steps toward geotechnical certification.
