Overwater pile foundation construction - Using technology to create a beautiful landscape on the Congo River

As one of the important tourist spots in Kinshasa, the Congo River cruise restaurant has been plagued by the problem of connecting the river bank with the cruise ship. The owner has repeatedly invited the construction enterprise in Kinshasa to study how to build the water trestle, but all of them were shelved due to the complex construction technology, long period and high construction cost proposed by the construction enterprise.

As the most professional pile foundation construction unit in Kinshasa, after receiving the invitation to participate, our company specially studied the current and depth of the Congo River, where the cruise ship is located, and the thickness of the sediment cover layer at the bottom of the river, and proposed the plan of building the pile foundation with floating platform on the water. Two 80-ton barges were used as floating platform on the water, and three drilling RIGS were used as fixed anchors. Successfully completed the construction of steel pipe piles on the water trestle bridge within 2 months, and the construction cost was 80% lower than that proposed by other construction enterprises. Our high level of pile foundation construction technology was highly praised by the owners.

The water trestle steel pipe pile is 5 meters above the river, and the trestle is raised and lowered with the rise and fall of the Congo River, and the water cruise ship is always at the same height. After the completion of the construction of the steel pipe pile on the water trestle bridge, it immediately became a beautiful scenery on the Congo River, and the president of the Congo visited the site in person, and praised the bridge's superb steel pipe pile construction technology and technology.
