Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) Piles are built by drilling a hollow-stem auger into the ground to form the pile’s diameter and a concrete pump is utilised to deliver concrete through the hollow auger stem to the pile.
Pile diameters range from 300mm to 1.2 m.
Piling Lengths range to 36 m.
Rig weights range from 11t to 160t.
CFA Piles can be installed quickly and inexpensively without significant vibration or excessive noise being produced. They are ideally suited for most soil types. Avopiling’s own design of drilling tools is capable of drilling into certain rock layers. Once desired pile level is achieved sand-cement grout or special concrete mix is then pumped into the hole through the hollow stem of the auger while being extracted, eliminating the need for temporary casing and making them ideal for non-cohesive or water bearing soils.
CFA System is ideal for foundation piles and for embedded retaining walls such as contiguous and secant piled walls.
Perth City Link, formerly known as the Northbridge Link, is a collaborative project funded by three tiers of Government and led by Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority and the Public Transport Authority (PTA).
The PTA’s $609 million ($360 million Rail and $249 million Bus stage) transport infrastructure work at and around Perth Station is the catalyst to bring Perth City Link's vision to life.

Hunter Expressway is an infrastructure road and bridge project starting from F3 to Branxton. The remarkable sections of the project is the BW011 twin bridges or Viaduct 3 and Viaduct 1 that runs through Sugarloaf Range. Piles are uniquely designed as influenced by a potential mine subsidence movement in the area. Series of bridges were constructed at around Buchanan Interchange
Avopiling was awarded by the alliance to undertake the piling works at F3 interchange, retaining walls, noise walls and various bridge towards Buchanan. CFA piling commenced at Theiss' casting yard, then bored piling from F3 to Buchanan Interchange.
