Delivering Safe, Cost-Effective and Timely Foundations for Saudi Arabia
Despite the unfavourable economic climate witnessed in most countries, Saudi Arabia has retained enviable growth rates due to massive oil reserves and a sound financial system.
The Saudi government’s ambitious investment programs, highlighted by the development of economic cities across the kingdom, continue to attract private investment and a plethora of contractors.
However, this increasing emphasis on mega developments, iconic high-rises and massive infrastructure projects, coupled with difficult and variable ground conditions, requires innovative foundation solutions.
The inaugural Piling & Deep Foundations Saudi Arabia Summit will bring you a variety of innovative piling techniques that will help you minimise project time, presented through outstanding case studies by regional luminaries and international experts.
Why do the Middle East’s Piling Experts gather at IQPC’s Piling & Deep Foundation Summits?
Because it’s the only Piling event in Saudi Arabia developed with the help of the world’s piling and deep foundation experts where they, and you too, can learn how to:
- Minimise pile material usage and project time by optimising foundation design
- Prevent redesign by carrying out cost-effective site investigations to detect cavities
-Tackle the high groundwater table through implementation of horizontal grouted blankets and other innovative techniques
- Execute time-saving strategies, including core barrels, to confront boulders in the ground
- Maximise pile end bearing capacities in coralline strata
- Increase productivity with new piling techniques for hard granite
- Analyse the latest research on pile behaviour in expanding clays and collapsible soils
