Pile Driver

The Crawler began shoring pile operation by driving 12meter H-beams into the ground along the perimeter of the site. Here was the first test driving of H-beam done in the middle of the site to establish the correct speed and soil bearing conditions.
It took half a day to complete this first stretch. But then please don't look at the trees! We had to 'trim' the trunks and parts that 'interfered' with the vertical locus of the green pile machine hanging from the crawler rig.

1.2 meter approximate distance between H-beams to receive 1.2meter(w) x 1.0meter(h) concrete panels before the excavation operation.
