GRB System Standardization and Package Rollout with Silent Piling Machines

「In Italy, we also sold a large specialised machine to a GTOSS member. The customer is carrying out embankment reinforcement works using the same model sold previously and the GRB System, which is being adopted for the first time in Italy, and made the purchase in anticipation of future business expansion.」

「Following this phase, our construction method is expected to be selected as one of the standard methods for this project, which plans to rehabilitate 200 km, and made generally available to local specialist contractors and others. Our group has high expectations that standardisation of the method will create a substantial market for Gyro Pilers and other equipment, increasing demand for machinery sales and rentals to new users.」

「The press-in phase of demonstration construction by G-Kracht B.V., a joint venture funded by group company Giken Europe B.V. (head office: the Netherlands), was completed in March, and all phases, including subsequent work, were completed in July.」

「In the “New Technology Development Project for the Rehabilitation of the Canal Seawalls at a World Heritage Site,” the press-in phase of demonstration construction by G-Kracht B.V., a joint venture funded by group company Giken Europe B.V. (head office: the Netherlands), was completed in March.」

「The electric GRB System was deployed at the site in January. Work is progressing using “space-saving construction,” avoiding the felling of roadside trees, and the method has received high praise from the client for preserving the environment and visual appearance.」

「Press-in construction using the electric Gyro Piler, which contributes to carbon neutrality, and the GRB System is progressing smoothly, with 271 steel pipe piles to be driven over a 208 m section by next spring.」

「Press-in construction using the electric Gyro Piler, which contributes to carbon neutrality, and the GRB System is scheduled to begin in November.」

「The newly developed electric GRB System for this project arrived at the site at the end of January, and preparations for pilot construction are under way.」

「For the new technology development project involving Amsterdam’s canal-seawall rehabilitation in the Netherlands, demonstration testing in Japan of the electric GRB System, conducted ahead of the pilot construction scheduled to begin in January 2022, was completed and preparations for shipment to the site were in place.」

「Ahead of the pilot construction scheduled to begin in January 2022, detailed design and various monitoring plans are being developed locally, while demonstration testing of the newly developed electric GRB System is under way in Japan.」

「For Amsterdam’s canal-seawall rehabilitation project, detailed design of the seawall structure and machine development are under way ahead of demonstration construction from 2022.」

「For major projects, preparations progressed for the Amsterdam city canal-seawall rehabilitation project in the Netherlands, including the design of the seawall structure, machine development and establishment of the project framework, ahead of demonstration construction from September 2021.」

「Our Gyropress Construction Method and GRB System received the highest evaluation, and we entered into a cooperation agreement with the city. Going forward, 3 companies will conduct technical development and pilot construction, after which, subject to review, seawall rehabilitation works will initially be carried out for 4 years from January 2023, extendable to 8 years, covering up to approximately 1 km per year with an annual budget of approximately ¥2 billion.」

「In particular, the GRB System, which reduces labour requirements and shortens construction periods without requiring temporary works, is positioned as an essential construction system for resolving unsuccessful and failed tenders caused by labour shortages and enabling efficient public investment.」

「In product development, the new Clamp Crane CB2-10, a pile lifting device and one of the main components of the GRB System, a temporary-works-free construction system that completes the entire press-in piling process on top of the piles, was completed in September and sales were launched.」

「Our group has worked from an early stage to improve construction efficiency by enhancing the Silent Piler press-in machines, and to improve productivity by systematising and prefabricating construction methods, including the GRB System.」

「As Japan’s working-age population is expected to decline, improving productivity has become an unavoidable issue in the construction sector as well. Our group has worked from an early stage to improve construction efficiency by enhancing the Silent Piler press-in machines, and to improve productivity by systematising and prefabricating construction methods, including the GRB System.」

「We will position this “GRB System” as the standard construction system for the Implant Construction Method and promote its wider adoption through package rollout in combination with the Silent Piler press-in machine.」
