APAC GOES APE

While driving 130-ft long 30″ diameter steel pipe piles on the West Bay Bridge project near Panama City, Fl., APAC Heavy Division was experiencing much downtime and unreliable performance with a direct drive diesel hammer supplied by one of APE’s competitors.

APAC Equipment Manager, Bradley Briscoe called APE Florida.

A flawlessly prepared APE D-62 diesel pile hammer with an offshore lead set-up was shipped to the jobsite in the Florida panhandle from the APE yard in
Winter Haven, Fl. The APE D-62 not only decreased the driving time per individual pile, but, after driving hundreds of piles, the hammer has had no downtime.
“It starts easily and drives all day” stated Briscoe. These sentiments are echoed by the pile crew which is very happy with the increased production that they are getting.

Once again, an APE diesel hammer proves to be the right tool for a large, high-production project.

Russia

The Russians once again go Variable Moment. After great success in their 1st delivery of APE’s high tech Model 170 VM a second was shipped to the frozen land of Russia. More order’s are in the works. The 170vm works very well driving through permafrost and still keeps start and stop vibrations to almost nothing.

Developer M. Alfieri Co. Inc. with APE D19-42

When Nate Stone of M. Alfieri Co. Inc. was faced with driving 1,300 10×42 H-Piles for a parking garage, he called APE/J&M Northeast. A D19-42 diesel hammer with semi-fixed leads was recommended. The work was done in 3 phases. With the joint expertise of Local 1456 NY/NJ dockbuilders, Local 825 Operators, and APE the job was a huge success. We look forward to working with M. Alfieri when they drive the piles for the upcoming office tower.

Contact Paul Kuzik at 201-400-8356 for more information on this job. Count on APE/J&M for all your pile driving equipment needs.
