Auger Bore, Pipe Ramming & Tunneling
Providing Maximum Impact. Environmentally Friendly. Highly Effective.
These methods minimize impact on the environment and traffic flow and have social and economic benefits. It is a highly effective way to cross railways, highways, roadways, canals and utilities in a variety of geological conditions with minimal disruptions. Steel, fiberglass and reinforced concrete are the common types of pipe that are installed.
AUGER BORING
-
Pipe installations range between 12″ to 72″ in diameter and lengths in excess of 500′
-
Accommodate most ground conditions
PIPE RAMMING
-
Installation of steel pipe in cobble rock and free-flowing soil conditions using pneumatic percussion hammer with minimal risk of settlement
-
4″ to 60″ casing installations up to 400″ in length
GUIDED BORING (GBM/PILOT TUBE)
-
12″ to 48″ multi-staged casing installation with lengths up to 500′ on line and grade
-
Can be used in tandem with Auger Boring and Pipe Ramming to achieve higher accuracy bores
HAND TUNNELING
-
The preferred method when there is limited space, cobbles, boulders, and underground conflicts
-
48″ and above with a wide variety of parameters to meet the demands of the project
