PIPE RAMMING
Pipe ramming is a trenchless technology used to install steel casings or pipes through the ground. It uses a pneumatic hammer, powered by an air compressor, to drive the steel casing into the ground.
The leading end of the casing is left open, so the borehole is the same size as the steel casing, allowing for a large majority of the soil to remain in place. This technology is often used in combination with traditional case boring methods and equipment to achieve maximum driving force transfer.
The pneumatic pipe ramming system is suitable for various soil conditions and diameters ranging from 6 Inches to 96 Inches. It is a fast and efficient way to install pipes or steel casings in various applications such as roadway and railway crossings, pipeline right-of-ways, buried utilities, and airport runways.
Using pipe ramming in conjunction with the guided boring method can also result in superior grade and alignment accuracy, making it a reliable trenchless solution for various installation needs.
HIGH EFFICIENCY
Pneumatic hammers can achieve high penetration rates, making them ideal for use in hard compacted soils.
VERSATILITY
Pneumatic hammers can be used in a variety of soil types and conditions, including hard rock, which makes them a versatile tool for trenchless construction.
MINIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pneumatic hammers do not generate any drilling fluid waste or other byproducts, minimising their environmental impact.
RELIABILITY
Pneumatic hammers are durable and require minimal maintenance, making them a reliable option for long-term use in trenchless construction projects.
