Innovative Solutions for Underground Infrastructure
Base Pile Ltd. provides comprehensive solutions for planning, engineering, and operational challenges in underground construction. Services include demolition, retaining wall casting, excavation of underground car parks and basements, foundation boring, ground anchor installation, and groundwater lowering.
Casting of Slurry Retaining Walls
Base Pile Ltd. carries out shoring operations using slurry walls that may also be cast where the ground is soft or sandy, close to groundwater, or where basements encroach on a groundwater area. The slurry walls enable waterproofing of the car park and reduction of the volume of water that has to be pumped out for the building operations to proceed. This technique also provides for safe excavation in densely packed areas, making the maximum use of the area.
Provision of Supporting Ground Anchors
Ground anchors serve to support the retaining walls, affording protection from ground loads and earthquakes. Base Pile Ltd. specialises in the installation of ground anchors, offering permanent and temporary ground anchors, polymer ground anchors and anchor beams for distributing loads while forming retaining walls from piles .
Foundation Works Under Challenging Conditions
Soil foundation operations are carried out by Base Pile Ltd. by means of slurry elements and pile bores of varying diameters, as per design requirements. To prevent collapse of the retaining walls the Company applies the Bentonite and dry techniques that offer an optimal solution for underpinning structures, especially in areas of a dense or challenging nature.
Advanced Heavy Construction Equipment
Base Pile Ltd. operates a fleet of 10 modern cranes, including digging and hydraulic machines for slurry walls, piles, and ground anchors. Skilled professionals ensure quality, safety, and efficiency, providing flexibility for underground infrastructure projects. The fleet of cranes provides the Company with operational flexibility, enabling it to offer underground infrastructure solutions as an independently operating as well as a head contractor.
Underground infrastructures in Urban Renewal Projects
Base Pile’s extensive knowledge and experience also enable it to respond to the tough challenges involved with urban renewal projects - dealing with construction in urban and densely populated areas adjacent to educational institutions or other active structures necessitating complex traffic layouts, as well as unique ground conditions including sinkholes and soft or sandy soil, or close proximity to groundwater.
