Almost every trenchless installation begins and ends in a shaft, and the shaft is where the ground conditions are met head-on. It has to resist earth and water pressure, provide the thrust reaction the drive demands, keep a crew safe at depth, and frequently remain in place afterwards as a permanent manhole or pump station structure.
We build working, drop, access and permanent shafts using the method the ground calls for: secant and tangent pile walls for deep shafts in difficult or water-bearing ground, sunk caissons where the profile suits, liner plate and ribbed-lagging for shallower work, and sheet pile where site geometry allows.
Every shaft is engineered rather than adapted from a standard detail. Groundwater is controlled by dewatering, cut-off or ground treatment as conditions require, and the design accounts for the loads the drive will impose — not just the soil around it.
