IQIP Launches New Piling Technique For Noise-Compliant Installation Of Largest Monopiles
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on offshoreWIND.biz.
This is the sub-heading.
The foundation and installation specialist, IQIP, has put their newly developed piling technique EQ-Piling in action, which the Dutch company claims allows for the noise-compliant installation of even the largest monopiles.
This is the first paragraph.
Conventional impact piling is an established method for installing large monopile foundations at the required depths, but it generates noise that can be harmful to marine life, said the company with headquarters in Sliedrecht, the Netherlands.
The article describes in detail how the technique uses a 1,700 tonne water tank to prolong the impact time, which lowers the noise level.
Application To Railway Electrification
When the Gospel Oak and Barking Line was electrified, there were some complaints about the noise of the piling.
I wonder, if IQIP have a solution for the noise associated with the smaller piles used for railway electrification?

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.
