The initial stage involved the construction of secant piles, forming retaining walls to secure the site.
Tieback anchors were then installed through the secant piles to ensure the stability of the structure before beginning the main foundation works.
The final phase currently underway involves drilling PCS bored piles using our BG33 Bauer rig.
In total, 258 piles will be executed, with diameters of 80 cm and 100 cm, and depths ranging from 10 to 20 metres.
After completing the elevated zone (9 m deep), the team is now tackling the more technical lower zone, reaching depths of up to 17.5 m and using approximately 15 m³ of concrete per pile.
