PILING HAMMERS (EMVs) PILING HAMMERS ARE DESIGNED AS A PILING AND EXTRACTION ATTACHMENT TO BE USED WITH AN EXCAVATOR. THEY CAN BE EASILY ATTACHED TO AN EXCAVATOR DIRECTLY TO THE BOOM OR VIA A QUICK HITCH ADAPTER.

6-7 | MGF PILING EQUIPMENT

EMVs reduce the cohesion of soils through vibrations which effectively fluidises the soil, making it easier and more cost efficient to install trench sheets and sheet piles. The weight of the piling hammer and the applied force are enough to drive the trench sheet/sheet pile to the required depth quickly, quietly and efficiently. The same applies when extracting and the required pulling force is minimized due to the reduced friction.

PILING HAMMERS (EMVs)

0808 2569 364 | mgf.ltd.uk

KEY PRODUCT FEATURES • Extremely low height of the piling hammer

allows driving of long piles• High push/pull forces increase driving

performance• Fitted with a safety circuit• All clamps can be rotated 90° to allow face

working• Simple mounting with three hoses• User-friendly design with one-lever operation• Can be directly attached to the excavator

boom or with a quick hitch adapter with 80mm-100mm pins

COUNTER BALANCE DAVIT SYSTEMThe counter balance davit system consists of five individual lightweight components to enable easy transportation and installation. The counter balance davit and RGA4 fall arrest/RGR 7 man riding winches are connected to the free standing base. The anchoring system includes a weight rack that uses counter balance/ballast weights to provide support for a davit arm. No floor penetration is required and the complete system is modular and can be assembled in minutes providing a safe means of man riding, fall arrest and rescue from height. The counter balance davit system is the ideal system for multiple entry points to various confined spaces, or for when a permanent base plate cannot be mounted.

KEY PRODUCT FEATURES • Counter balance davit system is suited for work where connections to a modular system are not available• For use with RGA4 fall arrest and RGR7 man riding winch combinations• Independently adjustable legs for level or unlevel ground• 5 piece modular system allowing manual installation• Complies with BS EN 795 Class B• Extendable reach allowing between 0.5m to 0.74m• 24 x 15kg weights provide 4:1 safety factor• The standard range of excavation depth varies from 1m-12m deep

MAIN CLIENT: ENVIRONMENT AGENCY CONTRACTOR/CUSTOMER: VOLKER STEVIN DATE: 2005

As part of a Flood Alleviation Scheme in Hexham, Northumberland, MGF supported Volker Stevin with the installation of a new culvert system where a thrust pit was required to pass underneath an existing heavy goods railway line.

A 3.5m deep cofferdam, 23.0m by 7.5m was required approximately 3.0m away from the railway line. MGF designed a propped cantilever style cofferdam utilising 6.5m long 4A Sheet Piles toed 3.0m into the dense gravel with a frame at 0.5m below ground level.

In order to withstand the high load whilst maintaining a large clear span with minimal deflection, MGF’s Super Tank Brace with 120Te Hydraulic Powerpacks was used.

The excavation was quick and easy to install as the sequence was un-complicated with no need for re-location of struts. The high bending capacity of Super Tank Brace meant that the clear opening required was easily achieved and only a single frame was required to withstand the loadings. Movement of the nearby railway was monitored closely throughout the excavation and defections were kept within allowable limits.
