PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The challenge of this project consisted in executing partially submerged foundations in order to support a one of a kind building on the shores of the La Blanche en Ambarès-et-Lagrave River in Bordeaux.

The environmental requirements, as well as the difficult access to the location, were the chief challenges facing the Techno Pieux Gironde team. The type of pier chosen also had to permit excellent stability, taking into account the height of the building above water level.

Techno Pieux proposed the following solution

In order to support this one of a kind structure, we used P5-16G (141.3 mm x 6.6 mm) Techno Pieux piers to a variable depth of between 3.6 and 4.7 meters. Thanks to specialized Techno Pieux equipment, the certified installers were able to implant the piers directly into the water from the shore. Finally we welded special metal plates to the piers so that we could affix the entire structure on the same day.

With many similar projects to their credit, over the years Techno Pieux has developed their unique expertise in laying durable foundations in wet environments.
