Case Study Operator Training on a Burton on Trent Screw Pile Install FocusOperator training on site LocationBurton on Trent, United Kingdom PilesHelical, Ø88.9 mm Pile length4 m and 6 m VerificationDigital pile logs UKHelix carried out helical screw piling in Burton on Trent, installing Finnish-made Ø88.9 mm helical piles to depths of 4 and 6 metres. On a job like this, the machine operator makes the difference. UKHelix trained the operator as the work went on, and he quickly found there was far more to a good screw-pile install than first meets the eye: feeling through the controls what the pile is meeting in the ground, matching that against the live data, steering each pile around obstructions and never overstressing it. Slow and steady is how it is done. The installation was recorded through digital pile logs, giving UKHelix a documented record of how the piles went in. It is the kind of controlled, well-recorded screw piling that suits commercial foundation projects where every pile needs a documented installation record. All case studies
