26 Mar Foundation for One of ASEAN’s Largest Green Certified Logistic Hubs
In today’s changing global economy, logistic hubs play an important role in keeping supply chains moving. With ongoing trade uncertainty and global disruptions, strong logistics infrastructure is more important than ever. Behind every efficient logistic hub is a foundation system that can deliver speed, stability, and long-term performance.
Supporting Large-Scale Logistic Hub Growth
As demand for large-scale warehousing continues to grow, ICP Piles was proud to support one of ASEAN’s largest green certified logistic hub developments in Shah Alam, with approximately 2.8 million sq ft completed to date and a planned total of 6 million sq ft of net lettable area upon full completion. Piling works were carried out from October 2023 to April 2024, forming the foundation for a major logistics asset built to serve today’s fast-moving supply chain requirements.
Overcoming Challenging Ground Conditions
The site exhibited a highly variable ground profile, together with the project’s high loading demands, this required a reliable foundation system capable of adapting to changing subsurface conditions while maintaining consistent load-bearing performance and long-term structural stability. ICP spun pile was selected over other deep foundation systems for its cost efficiency and faster installation, while ICP Piles Grade 100 and Special Thick Wall Piles were adopted in areas with good soil bearing capacity to optimise load performance.
Efficient and Quality Pile Installation
The project comprised over 5,000 pile points, ranging from 250mm to 600mm in diameter, including Class A & B, Grade 80, with both standard and special thick wall spun piles. Given the surrounding residential areas, commercial shops, and factories, the injection method was used to minimise noise and vibration during installation. With an average piling rate of 70 points per day, the works were completed on schedule.
Why Spun Piles Are Ideal for Hard Strata
In areas like Shah Alam, where dense and hard strata are commonly encountered, ICP Piles brings strong technical capability through customised spun pile solutions tailored to site conditions. By offering special thick wall piles, the foundation design can fully utilise the available soil bearing capacity, resulting in higher load capacity, improved structural efficiency, and a more optimised foundation solution for demanding developments.
Foundations That Strengthen the EconomyIn today’s world of political and global supply chain uncertainty, strong logistic hub infrastructure is more critical than ever to sustain a country’s supply and economy. At ICP Piles, we provide trusted foundation solutions that not only support large-scale logistics developments but also strengthen the backbone of the nation’s economy. We don’t just deliver piles—we build the foundations that keep supply chains moving and support economic growth for years to come.
