Piling & Foundation

Engineered piling and foundation solutions tailored to ground conditions, structural loads, and project requirements across civil, marine, industrial, and infrastructure works.

Engineered Foundation Design

Foundation systems tailored to specific ground conditions, structural loads and environmental requirements.

Practical & Cost-Effective

Practical foundation solutions for bridges, boardwalks, marine structures, retaining walls and civil infrastructure.

Built for Difficult Ground

Solutions for rock, sand, soft ground, wetlands, coastal environments and difficult terrain.

Safe, Durable & Compliant

Foundation systems delivered by experienced engineering and construction teams across Australia and New Zealand.

Foundation Selection

Designed Around
Site Conditions.

Every site presents unique challenges. Our engineering team assesses the ground conditions, structural requirements, environmental constraints and construction methodology before selecting the most appropriate foundation solution.

  • Ground conditions and geotechnical reports
  • Structural loads and foundation performance requirements
  • Groundwater levels and marine exposure
  • Environmental constraints and flooding risks
  • Site access and construction methodology
  • Whole-of-life cost and programme requirements

Foundation Systems

Engineered Solutions for Every Ground Condition

We offer a wide range of foundation systems to suit varying ground conditions and project requirements, from shallow reinforced concrete footings through to deep piling, rock anchoring and bridge foundation systems.

Pad Footings icon

Pad Footings

Traditional reinforced concrete pad footings designed for shallow foundations where suitable bearing capacity exists.

Suitable for

  • Buildings
  • Boardwalks
  • Platforms
  • Public Amenities
  • Industrial Structures
Strip Footings icon

Strip Footings

Continuous reinforced concrete strip footings used to support walls, retaining structures and linear infrastructure.

Applications include

  • Retaining Walls
  • Boundary Walls
  • Noise Barriers
  • Building Structures
  • Architectural Walls
Bored Piers icon

Bored Piers

Deep reinforced concrete bored piers designed to transfer structural loads into competent founding material below ground level.

Ideal for

  • Bridges
  • Boardwalks
  • Heavy Structures
  • Public Infrastructure
  • Soft Ground Conditions
Driven Piles icon

Driven Piles

Driven pile systems provide efficient load transfer through weak soils into stronger bearing strata. Piles may consist of FRP, steel, timber or precast concrete.

Common applications

  • Marine Structures
  • Boardwalks
  • Jetties
  • Coastal Infrastructure
  • Bridges
  • Flood-Prone Areas
Screw Piles icon

Screw Piles

Helical screw piles provide a fast, efficient and environmentally friendly solution with minimal site disturbance and immediate load capacity.

Benefits and applications

  • Rapid Installation
  • Minimal Excavation
  • Reduced Concrete Usage
  • Low Environmental Impact
  • Restricted Access Sites
  • Removable and Reusable Options
  • Boardwalks
  • Modular Buildings
  • Platforms
  • Solar Farms
  • Temporary Structures
  • Remote Locations
Micropiles icon

Micropiles

High-capacity foundation systems designed for restricted access sites, difficult ground conditions and foundation strengthening works.

Suitable for

  • Steep Terrain
  • Existing Structures
  • Bridge Upgrades
  • Limited Access Sites
  • Rock and Variable Ground Conditions
Rock Anchors and Rock Footings icon

Rock Anchors & Rock Footings

Where competent rock is available, structures can be securely anchored directly into bedrock using engineered anchor systems.

Applications include

  • Cliff Walks
  • Viewing Platforms
  • Bridges
  • Steep Slopes
  • Coastal Infrastructure
  • Mountainous Terrain
