Precast Driven Piles to depths up to 19m. FK Lowry deployed their Soilmec SR-75 CFA Piling Rigs and Juntann PMx-20 Driven Piling Rigs to deliver the project.

FK Lowry’s Contracts Engineer Martin McKinstry explains, “The Avonmouth scheme was a real challenge. However, the success of the scheme was down to an open, collaborative relationship with our Client, Clugston. With them, we ensured sectional completion of certain areas whilst the Client ensured we had follow on works available by preparing piling platforms and working ahead of us at all times. This ensured full continuity of our works without any delays been incurred. It was a real team effort and we were extremely pleased with how the project went”.

FK Lowry have successfully completed a number of Energy Recovery Facility Schemes across Ireland the UK by undertaking Piling and Ground Engineering Schemes utilising a full range of piling techniques and disciplines.
