Impact driving

With hydraulic hammers

Impact driving installs the piling elements dynamically. A hydraulic hammer, usually mounted on a piling rig with leader, impacts on the piling element using a ram mass. Impact driving is used for the same applications as vibrating. The hydraulic hammers currently available are able to transfer much higher dynamic forces. For this reason impact driving is commonly used for very large and long piling elements.

Precast impact driven piles

Impact driving of precast concrete piles belongs to the classic pile driving applications.

Pile driving with large inclination

The LRH 100 piling rig offers the possibility to install piling elements with especially large inclination.

Sheet pile walls

Impact driving of sheet pile profiles used to create temporary or permanent supporting and securing measures.

Steel pipes

Impact driving of steel pipes used for the installation of foundation piles.
