Vibrocompaction: 2,400,000m3
Max Depth: 25m
Project Duration: 6 months
Equipment
Using V23 Vibroflots (maximum 3) BSS carried out the vibrocompaction
of the sand fill for the new Jurong Road Link between Jurong Port
and the Petro-chemical complex's on Jurong Island. This interesting
compaction project required compaction of sandfill within caissons
with 4mx4m cells. The problem with the cells is the water and air
used in the compaction process is trapped within the cell and makes
attaining the results that much harder. However, thanks to a great
Bachy Soletanche team on site, using up to three vibroflots at peak
production, the results achieved were highly successful.
