In jet piling high pressure water is used to set piles. [8] High pressure water cuts through soil with a high-pressure jet flow and allows the pile to be fitted. [9] One advantage of Jet Piling: the water jet lubricates the pile and softens the ground. [10] The method is in use in Norway. [11]
Pressure piling is a phenomenon related to combustion of gases in a tube or long vessel. When a flame front propagates along a tube, the unburned gases ahead of the front are compressed, and hence heated. The amount of compression varies depending on the geometry and can range from twice to eight times the initial pressure.
Concrete spun pile driving using diesel hammer in Patimban Deep Sea Port, Indonesia. A modern diesel pile hammer is a large two-stroke diesel engine. The weight is the piston, and the apparatus which connects to the top of the pile is the cylinder. Piledriving is started by raising the weight; usually a cable from the crane holding the pile ...
Franki piles can be used as high-capacity deep foundation elements without the necessity of excavation or dewatering. [4] They are useful in conditions where a sufficient bearing soil can only be reached deeper in the ground, [5] [6] and are best suited to granular soil where bearing is primarily achieved from the densification of the soil around the base. [4]
Screw piles are typically manufactured from high-strength steel [1] using varying sizes of tubular hollow sections with helical flights. The pile shaft transfers a structure's load into the pile. Helical steel plates are welded to the pile shaft to suit the site specific ground conditions. Helices can be press-formed to a specified pitch or ...
