Construction works depicting security of the site

Project 3D Visualisations, 3D Animations

We spent a lot of time around the construction site. 👉 However, we were not the ones wearing the protective helmets.
For our client Aarsleff we have created a series of 3D animations demonstrating different ways of securing the ground using elements such as prefabricated piles, ground-formed piles and micropolies or ground anchors and nails.

Each of them presents a separate topic related to a particular technology. In animations we present the machines that are used for the security construction, their transportation and the construction site with the necessary infrastructure elements. We also focus on showing what the securing process looks like with field cross sections showing the entire depth of the securing.

One of the animations shows slurry walls, which are concrete or reinforced concrete structures formed in a gap carved into the ground. Their execution belongs to specialized geotechnical work and requires advanced knowledge and experience. They are commonly used in buildings with deep undergrounds and in transportation construction – especially in tunnel works in cities such as subways and arteries for cars hidden under the ground.

A solid foundation is a must!

Another topic was related to concrete displacement piles.
They are most commonly used to reinforce soil for road and railroad embankments but also for foundation and soil reinforcement under cubic structures, such as residential buildings, offices and halls.
Displacement pile technology involves digging into the ground with a specially made displacement head. This head moves deep into the ground in a horizontal direction, further compacting the soil medium, thereby increasing its parameters.
When the required ordinate is reached, the pressurized concrete mixture is fed with the simultaneous pull-up of the drilling tool.

Aarsleff in its next animation shows several possible variants of the execution of king post walls. They are one of the ways of securing temporary deep technological excavations, e.g. for underground installations or building flooring.

The casing consists of a pile (usually made of a steel section, such as an I-beam, which is driven, vibrated or set into a previously drilled and concrete-filled hole) and an opinion (usually wooden) installed between the piles as the excavation is deepened.

The prerequisites for the effective use of Berliner shoring to secure an excavation are:
-ground water level located below the bottom of the excavation,
-no settlement-sensitive objects in the immediate vicinity of the excavation.

After fulfilling its function of temporary protection of the excavation, the Berliner shoring elements can be partly recovered (driven or vibrated steel piles), and partly they are lost (drilled piles).

Drilled piles are a classic way of making piles, especially large-diameter ones, allowing them to transfer heavy loads to deeper bearing layers of the subsoil.
The execution consists in screwing the casing pipe into the ground and picking the soil from inside the pipe with specialized drills. The drilled piles made can reach more than 30 meters in length, and typical diameters are 800, 1000, 1200 and 1500 mm.

Aarsleff used the animations on its website and other channels, publishing the material in three languages.
The company makes sure that the security processes it uses are known to customers, and that they know that the safety and reliability of the company’s services are a priority.
