Our Role
ByrneLooby was responsible for all piling works relating to the marine and land based elements of the project. This included the design of rotary bored piles for the two-berth RO/RO finger jetty, the bankseat and foundations for all structures. Ground conditions comprise 5m to 10m of made ground (reclaimed land) and loose estuarine sand, overlying some 20m to 30m of very soft compressible estuarine alluvium over firm clay or gravel at depth. Piles were up to 40m long and 900mm diameter with sacrificial casing through the soft compressible soils.
