Strong foundations depend on choosing the right equipment, the right piling method and an experienced team capable of dealing with difficult ground conditions.
Burnside Plant Hire Ltd provides specialist piling and plant solutions for construction, civil engineering and infrastructure projects across Scotland and the wider UK, combining experienced operators with a broad range of piling equipment and installation services.
Sheet Piling, Mini Piling and Foundation Solutions
The company's capabilities include sheet piling, mini piling, foundation piling, tubular pile installation, king posts and cofferdam construction, allowing different methods to be selected depending on site conditions, access and structural requirements.
Mini piling is particularly suited to locations where access is restricted or headroom is limited. These systems can be used for projects including houses, extensions, basements, retaining structures and strengthening works where larger piling equipment may not be practical.
For deeper or more heavily loaded structures, Burnside also provides foundation piling solutions designed to transfer structural loads into stronger ground at depth. Depending on the application, this can include steel H-piles, tubular piles and precast concrete piles installed using hydraulic impact or vibratory equipment.
Specialist Plant for Difficult Sites
Burnside Plant operates a fleet of specialist piling equipment, including MOVAX side-grip vibratory hammers that can be mounted to excavators for installing and extracting sheet piles, H-piles, tubular piles and timber piles.
The side-grip design makes this type of equipment particularly useful on sites where headroom is restricted or where conventional top-drive piling equipment would be difficult to use, including urban locations, underpasses, infrastructure projects and confined working areas.
Equipment can be supplied with experienced operators where required, allowing customers to combine specialist machinery with the practical knowledge needed to use it effectively and safely on site.
Cofferdams and Temporary Works
For projects involving work in or around water, Burnside also undertakes cofferdam installations. Sheet piles are used to form temporary enclosed structures that can then be dewatered to create a dry working area for construction or repair work.
These systems can be used on civil engineering, marine and infrastructure projects where controlled access to an otherwise wet or unstable working area is required.
Supporting Projects Across Scotland and the UK
Burnside Plant works with clients from the early planning stages through to installation, helping assess ground conditions, piling requirements and the most appropriate equipment for each project.
By combining specialist plant, experienced operators and a range of piling techniques, the company can support projects ranging from restricted-access foundation work through to larger civil engineering and infrastructure schemes across the UK.
