Continually rising real estate prices mean that even ground with less than adequate load-bearing capacity is becoming ever more attractive to developers. Ground improvement can be achieved by the highly productive methods of vibro-compaction, vibro-displacement densification, vibro-cast-in-place or soil stabilization columns. Selection of the most suitable method depends primarily on the ground at the site and on the loads to be carried.

By filling or grouting the bore hole with cement mortar (with or without stabilizing sand) the forces are transferred to the surrounding soil. The pile is post grouted in order to increase skin friction/load transfer.

By means of a special mini pile head, load transfer can be pre-induced, thus avoiding settlements and accordingly the building is stabilised and/or lifted when the load is mobilized.
