Application:

SAS Caisson Piles are rock-anchored drilled piles used for foundations. The load-bearing capacity of the Caisson Piles is significantly increased by using high-strength threaded rods SAS 555/700 as compression members. The SAS Caisson Piles, with a length of 33 m, were prefabricated as a unit in the factory and then transported to the construction site. This allowed for easy, fast, and secure installation of the Caisson Piles on-site. SAS couplings enable the mechanical connection of the threaded rods – offset coupling joints – and the client’s requirements for the 33-meter-long Caisson Piles were excellently met.

Scope of delivery:

15 pieces of SAS Caisson Piles, each with 16 threaded rods SAS 555/700 Ø 63.5 mm, length 33 m (~ 197 tons)
