Driven Pile for Private Boat Ramp

Private Residence Utilizes Driven Pile for Boat Ramp
Editor: Ashley Steele
Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc have been servicing both commercial and residential clients for the last 40 years. When the time came to install a river boat ramp for a residential customer with 5 acres of land, they called ICE® to help get the job done. Using an ICE® 216 Vibratory Pile Driver/Extractor they were able to drive 25' vinyl piles, sometimes in pairs, into the riverbed to create a barrier wall. Once this barrier wall had been driven, the customer poured concrete himself to create the ramp. He then had stones brought in to add to fill in the concrete ramp.
By being self-sufficient this property owner paid around $25K total for this job but added over $100K worth of property value. The driven vinyl piles are to remain in place to help shield the boat ramp from erosion from the coursing river.
