-
Ground engineering encompasses activities related to ‘foundation engineering’ – a thorough understanding of various soil types, their load-bearing capacity and the specialised alteration required to enable the soil to withstand pressure for years to come
-
Having been present in this space since inception in 1924, mastery of this space enabled Simplex Infrastructure forward-integrate to provide services across civil and structural engineering and end-to-end infrastructure solutions.
-
Till date Simplex Infrastructure has installed over two million piles.
-
For the first time in Asia, Simplex Infrastructure introduced the patented Geopiers technology in piling and soil densification during as assignment for the Group Housing Project in Sector 61, Noida.
-
Simplex Infrastructure was the first Company in India to set up a fully computerised Geo-technical laboratory
-
It was instrumental in setting up CAMSTARS (Computer Aided Modular Mounted Soil Testing and Reporting System) to meet the demands for speed and precision, required in evaluating the geo-technical aspect of soil characteristics.
-
It also offers testing facilities for soil and rock samples like Grain size analysis, Atterberg limits determination, Consolidation characteristics, Triaxial shear test – both drained and undrained with or without pore pressure determination, Direct shear testing, CBR testing, Unconfined compression testing, Compaction characteristics determination both by standard and modified proctor testing, Chemical testing of soil and water, Point load testing as well as UCS of rock.
-
Simplex Infrastructure has made its mark in CNS ground technology resulting in an expertise in geo-synthetic applications and well-point de-watering
-
It was awarded the largest single contract in soil densification based on a technique developed in-house
-
Simplex Infrastructure also accepts contracts in the area of sand drains, band drain, sand piles, rammed stone columns, geo-grid and geo-textile applications, reinforced earth applications, CNS technology, earth applications and special problem shooting.
-
Simplex Infrastructure evolved different methods of piling to meet ever changing construction needs such as: Driven cast-in-situ RCC piles, Bored cast-in-situ piles, Pre-cast single length RCC piles, Pre-cast jointed RCC piles, Under-reamed piles, Steel / RCC sheet piles, Diaphragm walls
-
The Company’s major achievements in foundation engineering comprise the following: Largest single contract in piling, fastest installation rate for cast-in-situ piles ever installed in India, deepest cast-in-situ piles and the deepest jointed pre-cast driven piles.
