RTG RG21T telescopic leader rig installing 1.2 m dia soil mixed columns up to 19 m deep in Dundee for deep soil mixing specialists Ground Developments of Livingston.

The columns are providing foundations for roads and houses on a development for Persimmon Homes. This is the first time deep soil mixing has been used in the UK for house foundations and we are very proud to be part of it.

The machine was supplied on hire along with a MAT mixing plant which provided the grout for both the deep soil mixing rig and a mass mixing rig which was working alongside it.

AGD are UK and Ireland distributors for RTG and are specialists in the supply of soil mixing equipment for hire and sale.

One of our 70 tons capacity Marchetti telescopic crawler cranes is pictured here working on a barge in the waters just off Port Stanley where it is on hire to Trant Engineering helping to construct a new jetty for the oil & gas exploration industry.

The machine left our yard almost a year ago and has been busy ever since it arrived in the Falkland Islands installing tubes with vibro and impact hammers plus general service crane duties.

AGD are used to working overseas having supplied many machines to all corners of the earth but this is certainly the first time we've ever been to the south Atlantic. This crane has been supplied with an operator as there is a shortage of qualified crane operators on the islands.
