[Company] offers a full range of services for the marine construction market. This includes the design and construction of new ports, jetties and quays as well as the extension and restoration of existing structures. We also have solutions for tidal barriers and coastal protection schemes…
Wet soil mixing, also known as the deep mixing method, improves the characteristics of weak soils by mechanically mixing them with cementitious binder slurry.
Mass Soil Mixing (MSM), or mass stabilisation, is a ground improvement technique that improves soft or loose soils, by mechanically mixing them with either wet grout or dry cementitious binder.
Compensation or fracture grouting is the injection of a cement slurry grout into the soil creating and filling fractures that then lift the overlying soil and structures.
Keller provides geotechnical solutions for the commerical market sector for both existing and planned structures, including office buildings, hotels, distribution centres, retail, data centres, and other structures.
Continuous flight auger (CFA) piles are a type of bored cast-in-place replacement pile. Piles are drilled and concreted in one continuous operation enabling much faster installation time than for other piles of this type. Reinforcement is placed into the wet concrete after casting, enabling the…
Permeation grouting, also known as cement grouting or pressure grouting, fills cracks or voids in soil and rock and permeates coarse, granular soils with flowable particulate grouts to create a cemented mass.
Vibro compaction is a ground improvement technique that densifies clean, cohesionless granular soils with a downhole vibrator. It’s a technique first developed by Keller in the 1930s that we’ve used on thousands of projects since.
This technique involves construction of loadbearing columns made from gravel or crushed stones with a vibrator to reinforce all soils in the treatment zone and densify surrounding granular soils. It’s a technique first developed by our company founder, Johann Keller, that we’ve used on thousands…
Keller provides systems and services for monitoring the safety and stability of buildings, excavations, bridges, railways, roads, tunnels, dams, embankments and slopes.
Our people are our most valuable asset. We are committed to creating a work environment and culture that brings out their best and keeps Keller a great place to work.
Wick drains, also known as Prefabricated Vertical Drains (PVD) are prefabricated geotextile filter-wrapped plastic strips with molded channels. These act as drainage paths to take pore water out of soft compressible soil so it consolidates faster, often from decades to months.
Rigid inclusions is a ground improvement method using high deformation modulus columns constructed through compressible soils to reduce settlement and increase bearing capacity.
Ground improvement efficiency depends on the stiffness relationship between the soil and the columns. Load from…
Mixed modulus columns, also known as columns with Mixed Moduli, mixed columns or CMM® is a ground improvement method using high deformation modulus columns constructed through compressible soils to reduce settlement and increase bearing capacity. CMM® is the combination of a rigid…
Dynamic compaction involves the controlled impact of a crane hoisted weight, of around 10-30 tonnes, falling in a pre-determined grid pattern to improve loose, granular soils and fills.
Rapid impact compaction densifies shallow, granular soils, using a hydraulic hammer, which repeatedly strikes an impact plate on the ground surface.
Low mobility (compaction) grouting involves the injection of a low slump, mortar grout to densify loose, granular soils and stabilise subsurface voids or sinkholes.
Bulk filling generally uses a cement/pulverised fuel ash (PFA) mix to suit site conditions with compressive strengths in the order of 1.0 N/mm2. The mixes may include Sand and Bentonite etc as required. Gravel is introduced to fill major voids and/or to form containment barriers.
Driven piles are deep foundation elements installed using impact or vibration hammers to a design depth or resistance.
