Tree Composites
The innovation of the TC-joint replaces the traditional welding in TKY joints delivering a structure with higher fatigue resistance, reduced steel volume, increased lifetime and reduced price. This innovation is developed at the faculty of Civil Engineering of the TU Delft. Since 2017 over 90 wrapped composite joints have been manufactured and tested on various sizes of joints at the Stevin lab. The results of these test conclude that the wrapped composite joint outperforms welds.
GBM Works
GBM Works has developed a new installation method: the Vibrojet®. This technique negates all the downsides of the impact hammer by being silent, efficient and scalable.
The patented technology is a combination of vibratory driving and water injection near the bottom inside of the pile. By injecting water, the soil body temporarily fluidizes. This results in a reduction of inner shaft friction, which makes it easier to vibrate a monopile into the ground.
