Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016108690A1] A method for anchoring/founding an object (15) comprises the steps of positioning a sonic drill apparatus (1), providing an assembly of head and rod sections (6; 20), in which the rod sections are connectable to the head section and to each other while extending in the longitudinal direction for forming a pile,inserting the pile into the ground, and coupling the object to a proximal end of the connected sections of the pile. The head section comprises a drilling portion. The head section is drilled directly into the ground by means of the sonic drill apparatus, and repeatedly gets one of the rod sections connected thereto, after which the connected sections get drilled further into the ground. During at least part of this drilling, a sonic vibration is introduced into the connected sections.
