Construction Drilling

Stacpoole Enterprises Pty Ltd can drill and install anchors, bored piles and lime piles.

Piling

With our new piling rig, a Geax EK60LP, Stacpoole Enterprises can now drill and install any bored pile up to 1200mm diameter and 26m in depth with the piling machine's keel bar system.  The machine is small enough to move around with a 20t capable float and can be used on almost any building site; residential, commercial and industrial.

The new piling rig also comes with a 400mm and 600mm CFA string to install piles in soft and water logged soils, sands and gravels to 13m.  This enables drilling the piles in a single pass, pumping concrete from the base through the auger string as it is withdrawn and then optionally installing a cage into the still wet concrete formation.  The advantage to this system is there is no need to set up expensive and complicated mud systems to keep the hole open during the drilling procedure.  The second major advantage is it produces the least disturbance to the surrounding soils.

Our last supported piling method is a DTH Hammer capable of drilling a 508mm hole in any rock.  This can also be used to socket piles into rock too hard to be bored with a bucket or auger.

Installing Anchors inside heritage listed building at Boags

CMV rig being lifted into Boags BreweryStacpoole Enterprises Pty Ltd installed 36 anchors into a 20m by 20m heritage listed building shell to enable Boags to install a silo.  The inside of the building shell was excavated to 2m depth with no drainage.  The anchors were installed onto hard rock and grouted through saturated sands and soils displacing water from the hole by injecting the grout directly to the bottom of the anchor.  The water displaced out of each anchor was sucked into our vacuum tank driven into a nearby building.
