Piling Introduction

Our Role in the Piling Market

ROMTECH is the UK’s premier supplier of pile reinforcement.

 This includes:
  • Factory manufactured pile cages to BS 7123
  • Cage Former Systems for the rapid, accurate site steelfixing option to UK CARES Technical Approval Document TA5/5010 : 2005
  • Loose rebar, rings and helical to BS 4449:2005
  • LOLER – Compliant offload / stillage system to avoid working at height on the trailer deck.
  • “Safe Splice”™ Safety orientated Pile Cage fastening system for the Rotary Piling Technique
All factory prefabricated pile cages conform to UK CARES Assessment Schedule 10 by which we mean that we design the fillet welds between bands and cage rebars to give an acceptable factor of safety for cage lifting and installation. We inspect finished cages in order to ensure cage compliance against this temporary works design.

All factory tackwelds comply with UK CARES Assessment Schedule 6 ensuring against rebar embrittlement so reducing site liability during pile trimming.

ROMTECH produces CAD drawings of rebar cages prior to contracts starting. This enables prior approval of the actual cage to be used, as well as being a works instruction, a site inspection instruction and finally an ‘as-built’ record of the steel components within the pile.

We at ROMTECH are used to working between the late arrival of design information and the unremitting deadline of imminent cage delivery.

Whichever ROMTECH product option is selected, our aims are to ensure product compliance with the latest Health and Safety Legislation, high site productivity and freedom from metallurgical defects; the whole package presenting itself as a cost-effective solution.

Should future sites demand solutions which are beyond the scope of our existing product lines, then we would work with site to either modify these or develop fresh solutions. We regularly attend sites and carry out ‘toolbox talks’ to personnel and compile Method Statements in order to ensure correct product usage.

Finally, ROMTECH is well-versed and experienced at operating within such a demanding environment. We offer ‘one-stop’ shopping for all your existing pile reinforcement needs along with a unique service to develop new product lines and so meet the challenges of the future.
