Citadel

VolkerGround Engineering completed the installation of approximately eight hundred and twenty tonnes of temporary steel sheet piles in lengths ranging from seven to eleven metres.

The installation was to allow the construction of the precast ‘Readywall' and culvert on the site of the new Citadel Junction warehouse facility near Wolverhampton.

Pre-augering was carried out along the pileline prior to installation and then impact driving used to achieve the required toe levels.

Due to the depth of the excavation (in excess of eight metres in areas) multi level framing was required throughout the works.
