Cyntech Installs New 138kV Transmission Line in Remote
Location in Peru
In March 2020, Cyntech began to mobilize at a remote site in a Peruvian jungle to begin the construction of a 138kV transmission line that spanned 140km. With no concrete plant in the area, traditional foundations were impractical and costly. Because of this, Cyntech’s team was engaged to provide a helical pile foundation alternative for consideration. The client realized the cost savings and expedited construction schedule and chose Cyntech to design, fabricate, and supply 800 helical piles. Local crews were engaged to install the helical piles with the technical support of Cyntech. Taking a brief hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the project started back up and was completed in September 2020, providing critical infrastructure for the local population.

Intech Anchoring's Magnacore, Self-Drilling Anchors are hollow bar micropiles used as a deep foundation element. Magnacore can be used as vertical piles to support a compression or tension load, as well as a tieback or soil nail. One benefit of using Magnacore is the ability to install in very limited access scenarios. The installation equipment can be very mobile and used in very tight spaces with as little as 8-10 feet of headroom. Magnacore also allows for simultaneous drilling and grout installation.

Meever Presents "Intra Seal," an Economical Solution to Sealing |
|
Meever's INTRA SEAL is an economical solution to sealing all types of steel sheet pile interlocks (hot rolled or cold formed). Since steel sheet pile, interlocks are not designed to be watertight, INTRA SEAL meets the challenge of sealing the interlocks of steel sheet pile. INTRA SEAL also dramatically improves the performance of cold formed interlock, which in many cases has been rejected because of questionable seal-ability. Now contractors can enjoy the economic benefits of cold formed sheet pile even in open water marine environments. Cold formed sheet or hot rolled sheet pile can be treated wet or dry, with an environmentally safe product. INTRA SEAL will be available through many sources in the pile driving industry. Dealer inquiries welcome.
