More Information
Summary:A pile guide (1) is provided comprising a base frame (3) and a superstructure comprising a pile guide member (5) for guiding the pile as it is driven into a substrate when the base frame is resting thereon. At least part of the superstructure defines an arm that is rotational with respect to the base frame about first and second points of rotation, to rotate the pile guide member with respect to the base frame. The first and/or second point of rotation is translatable with respect to the base frame in a first direction, thereby rotating the arm about the first and second points of rotation with respect to the base frame. The first and/or second point of rotation is translatable in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first and second points of rotation with respect to the base frame direction. A method is also provided.
