Hawaii Goes APE
Reported From: APE Western (CA)
Why do the contractors in Hawaii choose APE for their foundation equipment needs? Because APE is the one stop foundation shop. Healy Tibbit Builders from Honolulu, HI knows this and that is why they use APE.
“We do alot of work here on Ohau and we need equipment that works.” Says Bruce Richardson, Super for Healy Tibbits. “I like to know that when we need the service, I will get it and APE always comes through for me.”
Driving 16″ octagon pile for a parking structure Healy Tibbits uses a APE/Junttan HHK5a to get the job done. They are using the HHK5a because it meets the islands strict noise critera and is simple to operate.
“This is the quietest hammer I have ever used”, says Bruce, “We have used a number of different hydraulic hammers here on the islands and after we used the HHK5a we are convinced that we can drive our pile in even the strictest of sound environments in the world!”
