Product catalog summary

Overview
BSP International Foundations Limited is a leader in piling hammers and dynamic compaction equipment since 1906. The company emphasizes global impact through innovative solutions in soil compaction.

Control and Safety
The equipment is controlled from the excavator cab with electronic monitoring of compaction. Safety is enhanced as the impact foot remains in contact with the ground, reducing debris risks and allowing nearby activities.

Speed and Quality
The equipment is mounted on standard excavators (40-90 tonnes) and can be quickly mobilized. Compaction data is recorded to identify weak zones or underground obstructions.

Rapid Impact Compaction (RIC)
RIC is a technique to increase soil bearing capacity through controlled impact, effective up to 6m depth, with improvements seen up to 9m. A drop weight of 5 to 16 tonnes is used, impacting 40-60 times per minute.

Methodology
The compaction method varies by country, typically using a three-pass track pattern to achieve optimal depth influence.

Results
RIC is effective on granular fills and some silts, covering 800m² - 16000m² per day. Maintenance includes rotating dolley pads in the foot assembly.

Data Logging and Position Monitoring
Machines record work done, with criteria for final set, depth, and blow counts. Optional GPS coordinates enhance data precision.

RIC with Drilling Attachment
RIC can be combined with soil improvement techniques like soil mixing and stone columns. A mast and drill attachment allows for shallow hole drilling, enhancing load-bearing foundations.

Technical Specifications
Specifications include model dimensions, weight, and operational parameters. The equipment can be tailored for specific needs, including sheet or tube piles.

RIC is a technique allied to Dynamic Compaction that can be used to increase the bearing capacity of soils through controlled impact. The treatment is effective in the top layers typically up to 6m depth, though improvements up to 9m have been seen in some conditions. A drop weight of 5 to...

DATA LOGGING A standard machine has the ability to record work done. Target criteria settings are adjusted for final set, depth and blow counts. The driver then compacts until one of those criteria is reached before moving the machine on. A visual representation of the data is seen in the cab and recorded by the on-board monitor. TYPICAL DIMENSIONS The above weights and dimensions are a typical guide only and may vary slightly depending on the base machine chosen. Lengths marked * would normally be shipped with hammer and excavator on separate trucks.

Up until now, RIC has been limited on the use of silty and clay material. RIC activities can be combined with other soil improvement techniques to provide a cost effective solution even in these silty/clay conditions. This essentially includes soil mixing and stone...
