Comprehensive Geotechnical Solutions
From deep foundations to ground improvement, we deliver the full spectrum of geotechnical services across all seven Emirates.
Piling Systems
Comprehensive deep foundation solutions engineered for structural integrity and load-bearing performance.
Bored Piles
Cast-in-situ piles drilled to precise depths, suitable for heavy structural loads in varied geotechnical conditions. Diameters up to 2.0 m, depths exceeding 47 m.
Micro-Piles
Small-diameter, high-capacity piles ideal for restricted-access sites, underpinning, and seismic retrofitting applications.
CFA Piles
Continuous Flight Auger piles offering rapid installation with minimal vibration — suited for urban environments and sensitive adjacent structures.
Pile Load Testing
Rigorous static and dynamic load testing to verify pile capacity and confirm design assumptions in compliance with international standards.
Retaining & Shoring Systems
Engineered earth retention and excavation support systems that ensure site stability during deep basement construction.
Secant Pile Walls
Interlocking bored pile walls providing water-tight retention for deep excavations in high water-table environments.
Contiguous Pile Walls
Closely spaced bored pile walls suitable for soil retention where groundwater control is not a primary concern.
Soldier Pile Walls
Steel H-pile and lagging systems for cost-effective temporary excavation support in stable ground conditions.
Sheet Piles
Interlocking steel sheet piles for waterfront structures, cofferdams, and temporary or permanent earth retention.
Ground Improvement & Treatment
Advanced soil stabilization and improvement techniques that enhance bearing capacity and prepare weak ground for construction.
Stone Columns
Vibro-replacement stone columns that improve load-bearing capacity and accelerate consolidation in soft cohesive soils.
Vibro Compaction
Deep vibratory densification of granular soils to increase density and reduce liquefaction potential.
Controlled Modulus Columns (CMC)
Semi-rigid inclusions that transfer structural loads to competent strata while controlling differential settlement.
Pressure Grouting
Cement or chemical grout injection to fill voids, stabilize loose soils, and improve ground strength.
Cavity Filling
Specialized grouting to treat subsurface cavities and voids, mitigating settlement risk in karstic or compromised ground.
Enabling & Support Works
Essential site preparation and support services that complement core geotechnical operations.
Excavation & Carting Away
Controlled excavation and material removal for basement construction, utility corridors, and site grading.
Dewatering
Groundwater management systems including well-point and deep-well dewatering to maintain dry working conditions.
Soil Nailing
In-situ reinforcement technique using grouted steel bars to stabilize slopes and excavation faces.
How Bored Piling Works
A proven six-step process that ensures every pile meets design specifications and international quality standards.
Site Investigation
Soil borings and geotechnical analysis determine pile type, diameter, and depth based on ground conditions.
Rig Positioning
Piling rigs are positioned using GPS coordinates to ensure exact pile locations per structural drawings.
Drilling & Casing
Rotary drilling with temporary casing or polymer slurry stabilizes the borehole through unstable soil layers.
Reinforcement Cage
Pre-fabricated steel reinforcement cages are lowered into the borehole to design specifications.
Concrete Placement
High-strength concrete is poured using tremie pipes from bottom-up, displacing any slurry or water.
Integrity Testing
Completed piles undergo sonic integrity and/or static load testing to verify capacity and quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Soiltec's geotechnical services, capabilities, and operations.
What types of piling does Soiltec offer?
Soiltec provides a comprehensive range of deep foundation systems including bored cast-in-situ elements (up to 2,500 mm diameter), CFA (Continuous Flight Auger) columns, driven precast units, secant wall structures, and contiguous wall solutions. Each system is selected based on soil conditions, structural loads, and project requirements.
Where does Soiltec operate in the UAE?
Soiltec operates across all seven Emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah. Our fleet of 77 equipment units and 251+ professionals enable rapid mobilization to any project location in the UAE.
What diameter bored piles can Soiltec install?
Soiltec can install bored piles ranging from 600 mm to 2,500 mm in diameter, with depths exceeding 50 meters depending on soil conditions and structural requirements. We use advanced rotary drilling rigs equipped with temporary casing and polymer stabilization systems.
How long has Soiltec been operating?
Soiltec Piling & Foundation LLC was established in 2006 in Dubai, UAE. With nearly two decades of experience, we have completed over 700 geotechnical projects for government, commercial, residential, and infrastructure clients across the UAE.
Does Soiltec provide ground improvement services?
Yes, Soiltec offers comprehensive ground improvement services including vibro compaction, vibro replacement (stone columns), dynamic compaction, and soil stabilization. These techniques are used to improve bearing capacity and reduce settlement in weak or loose soils.
