Diary and Appointments
Franki Africa has
dominated the
geotechnical industry
in the plethora of major
developments that have
been taking place in
Sandton in the recent
past. Perhaps the largest
basement project
undertaken ever in South
Africa, the mammoth
600 000 m³ excavation
and 15 500 m² of lateral
support basement for the
new Discovery head office,
has been a prime example
not only of Franki’s ability
to work under pressure,
but also to find the right
solution in the face
of challenging geologi-
cal conditions.
