Good practice in Singapore involves a systematic jacking process to verify pile capacity during installation: Jacking Force ( cap P sub j
It is recommended that the jacking machine be used at no more than 75% of its maximum capacity to ensure safety and equipment longevity. Good practice in Singapore involves a systematic jacking
Let’s keep sharing knowledge to raise the bar for construction quality in Singapore. 👷♂️🏗️ Currently, machines in Singapore can handle capacities up
: Use jacking machines up to 75% of their maximum rated capacity. Currently, machines in Singapore can handle capacities up to 800 tonnes for piles like 600mm diameter spun piles. Working Platform spun micro piles
Driving into OA with SPT-N > 60 can stall the jack before reaching design toe level. : Either (a) redesign with a smaller pile section, (b) implement vibro-replacement prior to jacking, or (c) switch to a hybrid jack-drill method (allowed only under special supervision).
To establish a standardized observation-based framework for the hydraulic jacking of displacement piles (e.g., spun micro piles, precast concrete piles, steel tubular piles) in Singapore’s variable geological profile. This ensures pile integrity, driving compliance, and protection of adjacent structures.
