New Providence Wharf, UK

Set in the Isle of Dogs, Charrington’s Wharf (Tower Hamlet Condominiums or New Providence Wharf) in London was the second site for Osterberg Cell® (O-cell®) testing in the United Kingdom.

The O-cell testing for Stent Foundations Ltd. (John Spence, Project Manager) was part of a value-engineering program. A 670 mm diameter O-cell was placed 0.65 meters above the tip of the 1100 mm diameter, 36.2 m deep test pile.

The pile was loaded to a combined skin friction and end bearing of more than 18.3 MN.
