Overview
Piling Work under Access Engineering Ltd. was started in 2003 with the construction of the pile foundations for the Water’s Edge building at Battaramulla where around 400 No. of cast in-situ piles were installed using percussion drilling method. Since then we have successfully completed many piling projects up to May 2008 by percussion drilling method including piling works for two road bridges of Road Development Authority and one railway bridge of Sri Lanka Railways. In May 2008, we acquired a Bauer BG 24 hydraulically operated rotary drilling rig together with special tools and equipment, and experienced crew specially trained for rotary drilling technique. Nowadays, we are in the process of expanding the capacity of the Division by acquiring several more rotary type rigs and crew for enabling us to handle several projects simultaneously.
With our present strength, we undertake installation of cast in-situ bored piles using Rotary Drilling Method as well as Percussion Drilling Method. We have the capacity of installing bored piles of diameters up to 1800 mm to a maximum depth of 56 m.
We own almost all other machinery/equipment required for piling operations including certain equipment used for testing of piles. Our highly motivated and quality conscious staff is well trained, skilled and qualified to provide efficient services to our clients.
Access Engineering Ltd. is an ISO 9001 : 2008 QMS and ISO 14001 : 2004 EMS accredited company and all the construction and management works of the Piling Division are carried out as per company’s QMS & EMS.
