An arrangement for installing building elements, such as piles and tunnel sections, into a ground formation, where a building element is provided. Two or more impact drivers for delivering blows to the element are mounted on or operatively connected to the element. Accordingly, large elements, such as monopiles for wind turbines, which may comprise a steel tube having a diameter in excess of 5 meters, or even tunnel sections, can be installed by utilizing a number of relatively small impact drivers.
