Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Can somebody please point me in the right direction of outputs for Continuous flight piling.
The piles are between 6 and 8 metres on about 3m of made up ground (gravel/sand) and the bottom 3-5 on sandstone.
Thank you.

Alex,

What diameter are the piles and how hard is the sandstone?

If you want advice then May Gurney Integrated Services Ltd run the largest fleet of CFA rigs in the UK and would no doubt be interested in helping. (01603 727272)

The number of piles a day could range from a couple to ten or a dozen a day depending on the above info.
