Caisson Excavation
At Kinetic Energy Services, we provide a variety of services to ensure safety for those working on infrastructure, utilities, and industrial engineering crews.
This includes HydroVac, utility locating, and industrial cleaning.
HydroVac services can excavate these caissons safely by clearing the caisson of extra or unwanted water during the installation of piers, construction of bridges, repairing of dams, and a variety of other engineering projects where substantial water is present. Our experienced team uses modern equipment to ensure the satisfactory completion of every job safely and efficiently. Thanks to our 24/7 dispatch service, we provide rapid response times when clients need us most.
Dangers of Caisson Excavation
When caissons are created, drilling rigs can hit a water line or high-pressure gas line that was improperly measured or assumed in a different location, resulting in cataclysmic damage. Can you imagine the resulting danger and substantial damage that would occur without a proper understanding of what lies submerged underwater or invisible to the naked eye? Hitting unidentified utility lines with steel drill bit could cost you time, money, or in catastrophic scenarios, precious life. With water and suction, our HydroVac services clear a visible area to help crews identify underground utilities and potentially hazardous obstacles by excavating the caissons safely and efficiently.
How HydroVacs Are Implemented
When caissons are created, the water from the unearthed ground and surrounding area fills that void, creating difficulty in making further progress. Whether the project is halted do to heavy rain that fills the drilled holes or the area is surrounded by water, HydroVacs are essential for your crew to be able to maintain a safe work environment and continue work efficiently and without danger. Hydro excavating is a safe, precise, and non-destructive digging alternative. When you hire a Kinetic Industry crew, you know that your critical infrastructure will remain intact and unharmed and ensure the safety of your team members.
Deep Caisson Support
Bridge caissons are reinforced by pumping concrete into them with the rebar cage set. The weight of the concrete displaces ground water and rises as more is pumped in resulting in an overabundance of water. Our HydroVac services use suction to extract out this excess water and excavate the cleared space for reinforced concrete and create deep caisson support. This is the most contemporary, safe, and efficient way for civil engineering companies and municipalities to create substantial support for bridges, piers, tower cranes, and many other large structures.
