It can be said that rollovers are quite common for hydraulic pile drivers, especially during the break-in period. When a new pile driver begins to operate, the center of gravity on both sides can become unbalanced when the hydraulic hammer is at a high point. At this moment, if the operator suspends the right or left tire too high, the hammer may hit the steering column, causing the right tire to lift off the ground, or the left side of the machine to drop, further shifting the center of gravity and leading to a rollover.
Another reason for rollovers is related to the operator. There may be nothing wrong with the pile driver itself, but if the operator adjusts the pile driver improperly, lacks operational proficiency, or is unfamiliar with the construction site, rollover accidents are likely to occur. Therefore, whether it's a pile driver or other construction machinery, to ensure effective use and construction safety, it is crucial to use suitable ramps for transport vehicles or construction machinery and set the ramp angle below 15 degrees.
Strengthening construction site management is also necessary. Besides prohibiting others from entering the work area, there should be work supervisors and a clear discussion of the work sequence and methods beforehand, which must be clearly communicated to all relevant personnel. Construction companies should emphasize having high-level professional installation technicians. During the technicians' work period, it is also important to provide training so they can fully understand the specifications, structural characteristics, and installation processes of new equipment. After all, as China's construction industry develops, new engineering machinery and equipment are becoming more prevalent. Keeping up with the times and understanding the features of new equipment in a timely manner is essential to ensure installation quality.
Of course, technicians should also accumulate work experience and effectively summarize their work to further improve the safety and quality of engineering machinery and equipment.
