King Post Walls including Rock Socket Drilling

Pennine Geotechnical has extensive experience in the drilling of boreholes for the installation of King Posts Retaining Walls and other structural members as part of temporary and permanent earth retention schemes. We have gained a reputation as leaders in larger diameter rock drilling (up to 600mm nominal) and our services extend nationwide.

Our rock drilling techniques can be applied to other situations such as dowel holes for pinning sheet pile toes where adequate fixity cannot otherwise be achieved. 

We offer a design facility for King Post Retaining Walls.
