Foundations than that of a CFA . Because the auger can be assembled in sections , it ’ s flexible and versatile when piling in a narrower space , thus removing the need for any heavy-duty rigs or equipment , which speeds up the construction process in turn .
CFA piling , on the other hand , uses a larger single auger , which drills into the ground in a single operation . This type of piling is highly efficient , cutting both construction time and costs , and , with its ability to pile loose and water-bearing soils , it is frequently used in larger-scale construction sites .
Where a structure requires additional tenacity , Speedeck also offers reinforced concrete and piled raft foundations . Concrete foundations are armoured with steel bars to increase the tensile strength of the structure , helping it to withstand changes in heat and other geotechnical changes . The piled raft foundations work in a similar way , combining piles and concrete raft into a suspended slab , redistributing the heavy weight and axial load of larger superstructures .
Moving forward , Speedeck ’ s future is set to be as lucrative as its past . The year 2024 marks the business ’ tenth anniversary – a fantastic achievement to signify its continuing growth and success . With its clear customer focus and wide scope of solutions , Speedeck will continue to support the construction industry , guiding it into the future and enhancing it with its passion and expertise . ■
