Project Description
Sector: Buildings
Client: Constructora Capital
Bogotá, Colombia
Project details:
The ACANTO project, developed by Constructora Capital within the Ciudadela Alegra development in Bogotá, comprises six 18-storey VIS residential towers. To ensure the structural performance of the buildings, Soletanche Bachy Colombia implemented a deep foundation solution using SB PREFA precast prestressed piles, providing greater quality control, construction efficiency and sustainability compared with conventional systems.
One of the project’s main challenges was the presence of dense sand layers in the subsoil, which made pile installation using traditional methods difficult. To address this geotechnical challenge, a jacking solution with preboring developed by Soletanche Bachy Colombia was implemented, optimizing pile installation while ensuring the required foundation performance.
The solution reduced CO₂ emissions by approximately 60% compared with a conventional bored-pile solution, providing a more efficient, safe and sustainable foundation system for the project’s six towers.
60% lower CO₂ emissions compared with a conventional bored-pile solution.
