Piles and Micropiles KARST
Piles and micropiles are types of deep foundations that transfer the load of a building to load-bearing layers of soil or bedrock.
They are also used for stabilization (retaining structures) on unstable or weak ground or for securing excavation pits. The diameter of piles ranges from 100-300 mm (micropiles) to 1200 mm or more for larger interventions.
We specialize in performing various types of micropiles and piles and possess multiple technologies (grouted micropiles and piles, impact-rotary drilling, drilling with and without casing, in soil and rock mass, CFA piles, etc.). We carefully analyze project documentation to ensure an optimal solution and adapt to the specific conditions of the terrain (access, geology, technology, etc.).
Using new technologies and materials, we guarantee the quality, safety, and longevity of the completed works.
