About this project

Herbosch-Kiere is building a waiting jetty using the largest Vibro Hammer in the world

On the east side of canaldock B3 in the Port of Antwerp, Herbosch-Kiere is building a jetty to serve as an occasional or temporary mooring place. To drive the piles – 35 m long and 2,9 m diameter – Herbosch-Kiere engaged the CV-320 Vibro Hammer of Cape-Holland.
