Introduction
A support system was required for the installation of a new foul pumping chamber tank
and customers D.B Cummins (Jersey) Ltd called for MGF’s assist construction programme.
The Solution
The report from the sub-contractor, D.B.Cummins Ltd, detailed a 15m x 12m x 3m deep excavation with groundwater at 2m, with poor clay conditions throughout – requiring engineering designs and advice on the most efficient and safe support system. Managing Director, Pierce Cummins, praised MGF’s efforts
here noting, “the technical design and information was very helpful to present to our client”.
Equipment was pre-assembled at MGF’s Tring Depot – including 254UC, 203UC braces complete with a 60T cross strut – and delivered to Southampton docks for shipping direct to site.
“It was important to Pierce ensure that we met their construction programme. The design was completed and approved by their external consultant and equipment was on site, on time, as assured.”
Chris Whitworth, MGF, Operations Manager
The Verdict
After a successful job, MGF received a fantastic review
from a valued overseas customer.
