These are the key learning points from the official RT30 Piling Rig Tripod factsheet:
Preparation for Work (Preparation):
Tripod Piling: Involves percussive piling using a tripod frame and a power-driven winch to raise and lower a piling cutter, primarily used in confined or limited space support-type work.
Checks and Inspections: After assembling all components, thorough checks are necessary. The winch/hoist rope must be inspected for serviceability, consistency in diameter, and lubrication.
Underground Service Checks: Prior to work, it’s crucial to check for underground services. This involves consulting with utility and service providers and using cable avoidance tools to locate services.
Minimum Distances: Minimum distances or conditions must be adhered to when piling near underground services, requiring coordination with utility providers.
Permit to Pile: A permit is needed for work at new sites or locations, issued once the absence of underground services in the piling area is confirmed.
Lift Planning: A lift plan should be developed when a crane is used to lift the winch into position, identifying risks, mitigating measures, and roles, with only the appointed person allowed to amend the plan.
Piling in Busy Sites: In busy sites, the piling team should inform site management to ensure the piling route is clear of hazards.
Assembly and Dismantling (Procedures):
8. Work at Height: Assembling the rig may require working at height, so safety regulations should be followed to prevent falls.
Segregated Landing Areas: When working near others, landing areas for materials or components should be segregated to prevent accidents.
Manual Handling: Consider the size and weight of loads when handling them to prevent injuries, and use mechanical methods where possible.
Rig Inspection: After assembly, a competent person should check the rig, equipment, and components for safety.
Working Safely and Efficiently (Working Safely):
Load Security: Loads from transport vehicles should be checked for security and any possible movement, preventing accidents due to load shifts.
Overhead Power Lines: Maintain minimum safe distances when working near overhead power lines to avoid arcing dangers.
Exclusion Zones: Establish exclusion zones around the piling area to prevent accidents caused by falling components or ejected materials.
Winching Safety: The winch operator must ensure all operatives are clear of the pile drop area before winching, and regular checks on moving parts like the winching/hoist rope are crucial to prevent equipment failure.
Emergency Evacuation Plan: In confined areas, establish an emergency evacuation plan to identify safe egress routes for the team.
Winch Types: Diesel-operated winches should be avoided in enclosed areas due to exhaust fumes, and electric-driven winches are recommended.
Soil Disturbance and Services: Tripod piling is suitable for working near utility services, but the type and location of services must be known, and a permit is required.
Efficiency in Piling: The efficiency of the piling operation depends on soil conditions, and adding water in stiff clays can improve the cutting or boring action.
Boring below Water Line: When boring below the water line, a shell is used to prevent excessive water from entering the bore.
Safety with Concrete (Working Tasks):
Handling Wet Concrete: Wet concrete is corrosive to human tissue, so no skin should be exposed while handling it, to avoid severe burns.
Concrete Mix Variation: The type of concrete mix used may vary depending on the type of piles being constructed, and high cement content sets quicker.
Concrete Pump Safety: Safety pins on couplers must be secure when using concrete pumps under high pressure, and eliminating pipeline pressure is crucial when opening a coupler.
