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 />

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 />
