Project Spotlight: Piled Foundation Installation in Rochdale
At Elite Portal Frames Ltd, we take pride in delivering strong, durable, and efficient foundation solutions for residential and commercial projects. Recently, we completed a piled foundation installation in Rochdale, ensuring stability and longevity for our client’s home extension project.
Project Overview
Our client in Rochdale needed a reliable foundation for their project. Due to the presence of poor ground conditions, traditional foundations were not suitable. After a thorough site assessment, we recommended a mini piling solution to provide a solid base while minimizing disruption.
Challenges & Solutions
🔹 Poor Soil Conditions – The site had weak and unstable ground, which made traditional trench foundations impractical. We opted for mini piles, which are designed to transfer loads to deeper, more stable soil layers.
🔹 Limited Access – The property had restricted access, making large piling rigs unsuitable. Our team used specialized mini piling rigs, allowing us to work efficiently in tight spaces.
🔹 Structural Requirements – The extension required a strong foundation to support the weight of the new structure. Our carefully planned piling system ensured long-term stability and compliance with building regulations.
The Mini Piling Process
- Site Investigation – Conducted soil tests and ground surveys to determine the best piling approach.
- Pile Installation – Installed steel-cased driven mini piles to a depth ensuring maximum load-bearing capacity.
- Pile Caps & Ground Beams – Constructed reinforced concrete pile caps and ground beams to distribute the structural load evenly.
- Quality Assurance & Completion – Conducted load tests to confirm the foundation’s strength before finalizing the project.
Results & Client Satisfaction
✅ Strong & Stable Foundation – The new piled foundation provided excellent support for the extension.
✅ Efficient & Cost-Effective – Mini piling minimized excavation and reduced overall project costs.
✅ Minimal Disruption – Our expert team completed the work swiftly, ensuring minimal disturbance to the property and neighbourhood.
Our client was thrilled with the results, and their extension project is now progressing smoothly with a solid foundation in place.
