Project scope• Drilling for ground stabi-
lization for light rail line,for minimization of vibra-tions in the ground
• Number of holes: 160• Depth: 18-25 m (59-82 ft.)• Scope of drilling/total meters: 3 440 m (11 300 ft.)• Why water-propelled drilling? With air drilling the surrounding sensible buildings and cars would have been damaged.
Project Case Sweden, 2015– The Light Rail Line
gds geo drilling solutions ab
Equipment• Hammer model/sizes: WAI 60i• Casing system: Symmetrix system with Ruukki
RD Ø220 x 12.5 mm drilled steel casing piles• Pump: GDS 490 Diesel Pump, 490 lit/min @ 200 bar• Water source: Water hydrant• Drill rig: SPD DT145• Geologic formation: Sea bed, thin layer of moraine, solid rock
Main stakeholders• Commissioner: SL• Main contractor: Svevia• Sub-contractor: Foundation Drilling Sweden
Project/drilling resultsThanks to the water-propelled drilling, the project was realized without unnecessary costs for covering the surrounding house façades and without risking surrounding cars in car park to be affected.
