Each one of the 100 figures weighs around 650kg and is screwed on to a threemetre cylindrical steel
foundation pile.
The foundation work for the project has set a world-record, Emaar says, with the pile being tested to a load of more than 36,000 tonnes -- the maximum carried by a single
foundation pile to date.
Analysis on reliability of
foundation pile is one of the important research topics in the field of geotechnical engineering.
In total, almost 50,000m 3 of concrete will be used to fully cap the
foundation piles.
In all, about 50,000 cu m of concrete will be used to fully cap the
foundation piles, stated the Wam report.

Osbit Ltd has delivered a hybrid monopile cleaning tool to Van Oord, which is installing 87
foundation piles for the Walney 3 & 4 offshore wind farm in the Irish Sea.
To visualize the rocky substrate and perform the working plan of the deep
foundation piles, the geotechnical survey was divided into boreholes sections, all monitored by the data recording system.
In addition, more than 2,000
foundation piles have been installed - laid end to end this is enough to stretch across the Severn Bridge five times.
