Piling Mandrels for the Installation of Plastic Sheet Piling

Piling Mandrels – supports pile and vibroSide Sleeves Side Mandrels Internal mandrels

We work with Clients that are seeking to:

1. Broaden the scope of their activities

2. Keep abreast of the latest developments in Plastic Piling and methods

3. Reduce maintenance costs through the substitution of timber with plastic products

4. Give the latest designs in plastic piling ago, perhaps after historically having issues with earlier designs.

5. Move away from budget plastic piling

This presentation aims to provide a summary update on the us of piling mandrels used to facilitate the installation of plastic sheet piling.

Internal Mandrels

•Consists of two steel tubes with closed pointed toes

•Only for advanced range of piles

•Light weight minimises equipment size

This video clip illustrates the

principle of the internal mandrel. In fact was the first use

of the internal mandrel with the

Environment Agency at Fradley.

This is a continuation of the Fradley contract what is good about this video is that the driven clearly is not easy, but the pile driven through some very hard bands.

Also upon extraction of the mandrel, the pile remains in

the ground. No need to have a re-drive method.

This video is taken from the installation of MultiLock plastic piling on the M1 motorway.

Installation again using an internal mandrel and EMV300

Internal mandrels work really well with leader rigs. This clip showing the installation of 11m MultiLock

Remaining Issues

The main issues that relate today are:

Selecting the right pile for the job

Getting in equipment that is powerful enough for the task

Vibrator biased
