Big Holes in the Hills

Ground Anchor Systems was contacted by Mt Campbell Communications Ltd to complete the drilling required for there solar array installation.

Mt Campbell Communication are installing a new solar panel array for there existing radio hut located high on the ranges outside of Havelock, Our team where required us to excavate a knoll of weathered rock to allow space for the solar panel installation and a heli pad for access.

Once excavated the team drilled four 250mm diameter holes into fractured rock with a 8” DTHH for the PFC sections that will hold the panels, cement grout was used to ensure the stability of the PFC sections and resist uplift against the high winds that frequent the exposed location.
