The methods and equipment technology employed in the deep foundation industry have improved rapidly in recent years. the ingenuity of civil engineers, the results of new scientific research and the ongoing and new developments in machine technology have all lead to the acceleration of this process.
Applying technologies that have become very complex, and selecting the suitable machinery and equipment, demand ever more specialized knowledge and practical experience. It has become very difficult for users and manufacturers of special deep foundation machinery to maintain an overview of the level of technology in the sector.
This compendium volume II complements the comprehensive overview of special deep foundation applications and methods described in volume I. it is intended as an aid to planning and implementation, and aims to help practitioners, public authorities, engineering companies and students to broaden and complete their level of knowledge.
The individual chapters discuss production techniques and potential applications, along with the associated machine components. The specifics of each method and machine technology are examined in detail.
This special deep foundation compendium volume II is the result of intensive collaboration between engineers, technicians, practitioners, machine manufacturers and users.
