In Breda, TenneT and SC&M (collaboration Croonwolter&dros and Mobilis) are building a new 150 kV high-voltage substation to replace the existing one. Some 170 LeKa piles are being drilled into the ground for the foundations. This project is extra special for foundation company Kandt BV: their self-developed emission-free drilling machine is being used here for the first time.

For over thirty years, the Urk foundation company Ras Heiwerken has specialized in installing tubular steel piles in situations where space is at a premium. Ten years ago the service package was expanded to include screw injection piles, a foundation technique ideally suited for inner-city areas. Director Klaas Ras gives us a look behind the scenes.
