Project Overview

APIE FOUNDATION EQUIPMENT supplied specialized σωλήνας tremie systems for a major bridge foundation project across the Mekong Delta in Southeast Asia. The project involved constructing 135 submerged concrete pillars in challenging aquatic conditions with strong water currents and varying sediment profiles.

Challenge

The engineering contractor faced significant difficulties with concrete segregation και placement accuracy when using conventional surface discharge methods. The need for isolated concrete placement without cement washout was critical to achieve the specified 35 MPa compressive strength for the underwater pillars. Traditional methods resulted in an estimated 15-20% material loss and inconsistent pillar integrity.

APIE Solution

We provided our heavy-duty tremie pipe system featuring:

  • High-strength steel conduits with 300mm diameter and 8mm wall thickness

  • Quick-connect flange system for rapid assembly and disassembly

  • Telescoping sections allowing placement accuracy at depths up to 40 meters

  • Anti-washout gate mechanism at the bottom end to prevent cement separation

Results

The implementation of APIE’s tremie pipe technology delivered outstanding outcomes:

  • Zero structural failures in all 135 concrete pillars

  • 98.5% concrete strength consistency across all placements

  • 45% faster placement time compared to traditional methods

  • 17% material savings from eliminated washout

  • Successfully completed 3 months ahead of schedule
