02 / OUR EXPERTISE & SOLUTIONS
Ready for your project
From first excavation to completion.
We provide complete earth retention systems, including sheet piling, pre-boring, temporary structural bracing, foundation excavation and cement grouting, with precise engineering and specialist machinery.
MODULE 01Steel sheet piling & pre-boring
Sheet Piling & Pre-boring
SHEET PILING & PRE-BORING FOR SHEET PILE INSTALLATION
We install and extract steel sheet piles using silent hydraulic pressing with a Silent Piler or vibratory driving with a Vibro Hammer. These systems are suitable for temporary retaining walls in basement construction, drainage pipe excavation and tunnel works.
For highly compacted soil or hard sand layers, we offer pre-boring for sheet pile installation. An auger opens the ground before pressing or driving the piles, reducing friction, preventing damage to sheet pile heads and maintaining the alignment and levels specified by the engineer.
Scope & supported specifications

- Sheet pile length6.0 m to 18.0 m
- Installation methodsSilent Piler / Vibro Hammer / Backhoe Vibro

- Extraction & removalSheet Pile Extraction & Return Transport
MODULE 02Bracing & temporary structures
Bracing & King Posts (Temporary Structures)
INTERNAL BRACING, KING POSTS & PRELOADING
Internal bracing is essential to balancing earth and water pressure and keeping sheet pile wall deflection within the limits specified by the engineer. We install temporary king posts and assemble walers and struts using high-quality structural steel H-beams.
Our hydraulic jack preloading system takes up slack at steel connections so the bracing can resist earth pressure as soon as excavation begins. We also install platform decks and excavator access routes to support heavy machinery working above the excavation.

MODULE 03Foundation & basement excavation
Soil Excavation & Long Boom
DEEP BASEMENT EXCAVATION & MASS EARTHWORK
Excavation within an earth retention system must be closely coordinated with the bracing installation sequence. RTNC provides professional excavation crews with standard excavators and long-boom backhoes that efficiently lift soil from deep pits onto trucks.
We manage staged excavation to the engineering plan so each bracing level can be installed on time, preventing loss of retaining wall stability and systematically controlling settlement of surrounding buildings.

- Deep pit excavationLong-Boom Backhoe Excavation
- Soil handling & transportLoading 10-Wheel Trucks & Managing Soil Removal
- Excavation level controlStaged Excavation for Waler & Strut Installation
MODULE 04Cement grouting for soil stability
Cement grouting
SOIL STABILIZATION & SEEPAGE PREVENTION
On sites with high groundwater levels or sandy layers where water may seep through sheet pile joints, cement grouting is an important technique for injecting cement slurry under high pressure to bind and fill voids in the soil.
This increases soil bearing capacity, reduces water seepage into the excavation and prevents boiling or piping at the excavation base, helping foundation concrete casting proceed smoothly in clean, dry conditions.

- PurposePreventing Seepage at Sheet Pile Joints & Filling Soil Voids
- Process controlInjection Pressure Controlled to Suit Soil Properties

ENGINEERING WORKFLOWOur process
5 steps
From initial survey to site handover
Systematic coordination at every stage
Helps reduce site risks and save project time
Review drawings & ground conditions
Review boring logs, excavation depth and neighboring buildings to determine the safest system.
Transport & site layout
Bring machinery and steel stock to site, set out survey lines and prepare the work area.
Install sheet piles & pre-bore
Install sheet piles along the specified alignment using a Silent Piler or Vibro Hammer, checking the verticality of every pile.
Excavate & install bracing
Excavate in stages, install king posts, walers and struts, and apply preload to the engineering specifications.
Dismantle & hand over
Once the main structure is complete, safely dismantle the bracing and extract the sheet piles.
