Aspen Village, Canberra Three-Level Basement Shoring

APG designed and installed the bored-pile shoring for a three-level basement at Aspen Village in Greenway, ACT, a multi-storey mixed-use precinct, incorporating Transvent liners to manage groundwater behind the wall.

Australian Piling Group (APG) constructed the shoring system for a three-level basement supporting Aspen Village, a multi-storey mixed-use precinct in Greenway, Canberra. APG’s scope was the bored pile shoring for the three-level basement, including the supply and installation of Transvent liners to manage groundwater behind the wall.

Bored Pile Shoring Walls

The shoring retained the full depth of the three-level basement, with Transvent liners installed to relieve groundwater pressure behind the wall and support the long-term performance of the retained excavation.

Live Traffic & Constrained Work Areas
Works are being undertaken within busy construction zones alongside live roads and active infrastructure interfaces. APG implemented detailed traffic management, structured work staging and constant coordination with adjacent contractors to maintain the programme without compromising the surrounding road network.
Significant portions of the work are being completed during night shifts to accommodate project staging and minimise disruption to surrounding road networks. Maintaining safety standards, quality controls, and productivity during night operations required experienced crews, specialised site lighting, and tightly managed access protocols.
A key technical challenge involved installing reinforcement cage couplers at extremely precise positions so they align flush with future base slab connections once excavation is complete. APG implemented strict survey controls, dedicated QA processes, and experienced installation crews to consistently achieve the required tolerances.
Delivering piling concurrently across three major project sections required significant resource planning, fleet management, and coordination across multiple active work fronts. APG deployed multiple 120+ tonne piling rigs alongside support cranes, concrete pumps, and experienced crews, working simultaneously across the STSP, NTNP, and Central Section packages.
