Abstract: The invention relates to a construction device and to a method for operating this construction device, comprising a carrier device, an approximately vertical mast, which is mounted on the carrier device, a movement element, which is vertically movable along a linear guide on the mast, and at least one GPS receiving unit, which is arranged in the region of the mast. According to the invention, it is provided that the at least one GPS receiving unit is attached to the movement element and that the at least one GPS receiving unit can be moved between an upper, first measuring position and a lower, second measuring position by means of the movement element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pile-driving device and a method for driving driving material into a ground, wherein, for the purpose of driving-in, the driving material is clamped and held by means of a clamping means on a pile-driving power unit and prior to clamping the driving material is connected by means of a flexible securing element, in particular a securing chain, to the pile-driving power unit. In accordance with the invention a pressing element is provided which is displaced relative to the pile-driving power unit towards the driving material and, in doing so, a pressing force is applied onto an upward-directed front face of the driving material.
