Vibrated cast-in-place concrete piles

Installation of vibrated cast-in-place piles using the positioning system LIPOS

900 full displacement piles

A well-known German car manufacturer is building a new prototype production facility on an area of 10,500 m². All piles have a diameter of 320 millimetres and lengths between five and eight metres. In just three weeks over 900 full displacement piles must be installed as so-called vibrated cast-in-place piles.

Two Liebherr piling and drilling rigs, types LRB 16 and LRB 18 were used, each equipped with an LV 20 F high frequency vibrator with slim design.

The LIPOS positioning system shows the machine operator where exactly the 900 piles are to be placed.

Approaching the position for each new pile is child‘s play, without having to pay attention to colour markings or stakes.

The planned completion time was undercut by one week

Daily measuring work is a thing of the past and an overview of which piles have been completed and which have still to be installed is always available.

“Using LIPOS saved us a considerable amount of time as we didn’t have to arrange additional appointments with the surveyor and we could use every working day to the full.”
