Micro-Piles are usually used for extension of existing buildings who have been granted FSI or TDR and also for projects where piling is to be executed with minimum vibration to the adjacent existing foundation and also for RCC retaining walls or shoring piles where there is restriction of space and founding strata is at deep levels. We use Heavy Duty Truck Mounted Percussion DTH Rigs or Chain mounted rotary rigs for micropiles ranging from 150mm to 300mm dia.

Rock Anchors are proposed to resist the uplift force that might be induced on the foundations due to hydrostatic pressures or wind loads etc. Passive Rock Anchors are installed by drilling a hole of suitable diameter, installing bent up bar in the hole, cleaning the hole and then grouting the hole as per specifications laid down by the designer.
