Together Bermingham and Atlas-Copco supply the highest quality, project specific equipment, serviced by a<br />

world-class team of designers, engineers and field personnel. Bermingham – Atlas-Copco drilling systems<br />

PROJECT-SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS<br />

The synergy of foundation construction and equipment expertise together with<br />

talented design engineers places Bermingham in a unique position to assist<br />

other foundation contractors. In recent years Bermingham has provided<br />

contractors with detailed computer models of their projects at the planning<br />

and bidding stages as well as throughout production. This allows Bermingham<br />

to recommend equipment and procedures, and provide site supervision – a<br />

service not offered by other equipment manufacturers. Combined with the<br />

knowledge of Atlas-Copco product-specialists, there is no better source for<br />

foundation industry drilling expertise.<br />

ONE-PASS<br />

DRILLING<br />

<strong>One</strong>-<strong>Pass</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> is an<br />

idea built around maximizing<br />

production rates.<br />

Using <strong>One</strong>-<strong>Pass</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> a<br />

foundation pile (or other<br />

large element) can be<br />

drilled through overburden<br />

and rock in a single<br />

‘insertion’ – there is no<br />

need to change tooling.<br />

The pile, including the<br />

casing, is truly completed<br />

“<strong>One</strong>-<strong>Pass</strong>”.<br />

SYMMETRIX/ELEMEX –<br />

A REVOLUTION IN CASING<br />

ADVANCEMENT<br />

Symmetrix/Elemex is a revolutionary, multipurpose<br />

concentric drilling system. Symmetrix can<br />

drill through almost any ground condition, drilling<br />

straighter and faster than other systems.<br />

Combined with Bermingham’s Vertical Travel<br />

Leads, Symmetrix is the most productive<br />

foundation piling-system.<br />
