Pipe piles are employed during deep foundation projects to transfer loads from large structures and buildings to deep layers underground. They are pipes made of steel and may be seamless, welded, or spiral-welded. Additionally, they may be either open end or clos...

Unlike traditional pile drivers that use large weights to strike piles into the earth, vibratory hammers
use vibrations to reduce the earth’s resistance, which decreases the friction between the pile and the ground. This change in friction is what allows the ...

When crane mats are used to create stable areas for heavy equipment to operate on in wetland, swamp, and marsh areas, they should be both properly installed and properly removed. Proper installation helps ensure that they will do their job well and offer added st...

Steel road plates are wide, flat plates commonly used to cover potholes, excavations, trenches, damaged pedestrian walkways, and roads under construction in order that traffic may continue to pass while a project is underway. They are also used over trench boxes ...

Steel plates are commonly used to cover potholes, excavations, trenches, damaged pedestrian walkways, and roads under construction. They are also used over trench boxes during excavation for utility construction and repair. Unlike new steel plates, which come str...

Shoring systems are used to support structures to prevent them from collapsing during construction. Shoring is most commonly used during the earliest phases of construction; when walls or structures are undergoing reinforcement, during excavation, or when a nearb...

The purpose of shoring towers is to temporarily support a structure—often a building or trench, but also bridges—to prevent them from collapsing. Shoring towers can be used to support bridges in a number of situations, including during construction, when the brid...

Shoring systems are used to support a structure to prevent it from collapsing, usually during building alterations, excavations, repairs, or when there is a risk of structure failure. Shoring is most commonly installed during the earliest phases of construction w...

Steel piles are a series of structural steel shapes that are driven into the earth to stabilize a foundation. The various shapes include steel sheet pile, steel pipe pile, steel h-pile beams, and steel wide flange beams. These structural steel shapes can be drive...

Crane mats offer ground protection for heavy equipment to operate on and sit atop. They are an indispensable addition to projects that involve the operation of cranes and other heavy equipment on ground areas that are uneven or in swamps, marshes, and wetland are...
