Steel pipe ramming with the TR 360

Powerful pipe ramming in confined spaces

‍

For this project, the TERRA TR 360 steel pipe rammer was used for the trenchless installation of a steel pipe. The site was located in a spatially challenging environment, making precise planning and a compact site setup essential.

Preparing the pits

‍

After excavating and securing the launch and reception pits, the steel pipe was prepared. The site setup was organized to ensure the rammer could be used safely and efficiently despite the limited space. The TERRA TR 360 rammer was positioned using a hoist, connected to the steel pipe, and aligned precisely along the intended drive axis.

Powerful trenchless pipe ramming

Thanks to its high impact force, the TR 360 transfers the necessary energy directly to the steel pipe, enabling its controlled advancement through the ground. The open steel pipe is driven into the soil step by step, while the displaced material is collected inside the pipe.

Even in the confined conditions of the site, the compact and practical design of the TERRA TR 360 steel pipe rammerproved its worth. The machine was efficiently lowered into the prepared pit and securely connected to the pipe.

This project demonstrates how the TERRA TR 360 allows for the precise, powerful, and trenchless installation of steel pipes. This enables crossings and utility construction work to be completed without having to open the surface along the entire route—an efficient solution with less excavation, fewer disruptions to the surroundings, and significantly reduced impact on ongoing operations.
