Presentation Transcript

  1. Real Estate Management Strategy and Underpinning • Indications • Timing • Methods of underpinning IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen

  2. Need of underpinning • Existing foundations on wooden piles • Settlements • Potential risks of decayed wooden piles • Cracking of superstructures IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen

  3. Economy of underpinning • Earlier stage in renovation construction (i) => less settlements (ii) bigger collection of potential underpinning methods and less problems in superstructures => less costs • Later working => financing can be done later • Optimal date for underpinning? IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen

  4. Methods of underpinning in very soft soils • Jet grouting • Applicable only up to 10 m column length • Micropiling • Applicable to any pile length • Various pile types up to foundation conditions • Impact driven micropiles • Conventional driving against the pile head • Side Grip Piling • Jacked micropiles • Conventional pushing against the pile head • Side Grip Installation • Drilled micropiles • DTH • Top Hammer Installation • Conventional driving against the pile head • Side Grip Installation? IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen

  5. Micropiling method has impact to the building and use of it • Settlements during construction • Noise • Timing • Some methods are available only in the earlier stages of the potential underpinning time IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen

  6. Decision to underpin • Today: no policy to follow => decisions made by chance or by accident • Tomorrow? • Tools for strategic planning • Collection of underpinning methods => decisions will be made based on good understanding on the problems and challenges => less costs, less damages in superstructures => more business to the micropile industry => win-win IWM 2003 Seattle Jouko Lehtonen
