Eastgate Mall – underpinning

 Piling 

 

The underpinning works to the Eastgate shopping mall redevelopment project included the excavation of two eight-metre deep access pits, in order to gain access to the area underneath the shopping centre. 27 000m3 of material was excavated in an area with limited headroom (between 1,4 to 1,8 metres) by means of a remote controlled skidsteer, and 74 pre-cast piles of 300kN each were jacked using an electronic jacking system.
