CONCRETE PILE
FOUNDATION
what is pile
VISION & MISSION
•A pile is a slender structural member
made of concrete Steel wood or
composite material

•A pile is either driven into the soil or


formed in site by excavating a hole and
filling it with concrete
WHEN PILE
FOUNDATION IS
USED

•The load of the super Structure is heavy and its


distribution is uneven

• The top soil has poor bearing capacity

• The structure is situated on the sea shore or


river bed where there are danger of scoring
action of water
Based on materials and
construction method there
TARGET FUTURE
are many kind of piles

1) Timber Piles

2) Concrete Piles

3)Steel Piles

4) Composite Piles
CONCRETE PILES

• Pre cast

•Cast-in-situ
Pre Cast
Concrete Pile

• It is those which are manufactured in factory or at a


place away from the construction site and then driven into
ground at the place
required.
• It requires heavy pile driving machinery.
• It may be square, octagonal or circular in cross section. •
Size of pile vary from 30 cm to 50 cm in cross section and
up to 20 m
or more length.
• Grade of concrete should be M20
Cast In Situ

• A bore is dug into the ground by inserting a casing.


• Bore is filled with cement concrete after placing
reinforcement
• The casing be kept in position or it may be withdraw.
• The piles with casing are known as cased cast in situ
concrete pile.
• The piles without casing are known as uncased cast in situ
concrete pile.
Cased Piles
• Cased piles are a type of pile
that can be used in a variety of
situations, including in weak
soil, unstable ground, and river
bed soils.

•Cased piles are constructed by


drilling a pile, inserting a
casing, and then lifting out the
casing after concrete is placed.
The casing is available in
different sizes and lengths
depending on the structural
elements.
TYPES OF CASED
PILES
• Raymond piles

• Mac Arthur piles

• BSP base driven piles

• Swage piles

• Button bottom piles


RAYMOND PILE
• It used primarily as a friction pile.
• It is provided with uniform taper of 1 in 30
shorter pile.
• The length of piles vary from 6 to 12 m.
• Top diameter= 40 to 60 cm.
• Bottom diameter = 20 to 30 cm
• Collapsible mandrel is driven into ground.
• When the pile is driven to the desired
depth mandrel is collapsed and withdraw.
• The shell is gradually filled with concrete
up to the top.
MAC ARTHUR PILE
•Mac Arthur is pile of uniform diameter using the
corrugated steel shell which remain in place as in
Raymond piles.
• A heavy steel casing with a core is driven into the
ground.
• When the desired depth is reached, the core is
withdrawn and a corrugated steel shell is placed in
the casing.
• Concrete is placed in the shell by gradually
compacting and withdrawing
the steel casing.
BSP BASE DRIVEN PILES

• This pile consist of a helically welded


shell of steel plate.
• A concrete plug is provided at the
bottom of the shell.
• Driving is done by allowing hammer to
fall on the concrete plug.
• The casing is driven to the desired depth
and then it is filled with concrete.
SWAGE PILES
• It is used with advantage of driving in very hard or it is designed to
leave water tight shell for some time filling of the concrete.

• steel shell is placed on a precast concrete plug

• Pipe is driven over plug until the core reached the plug, then pipe is
swage out by tapper of plug which form water tight joint.

• Pipe is driven up to specified depth by help of driven force of core.

• Core is removed and pipe is filled with concrete.


BUTTON BOTTOM PILES
• It is used where increase of end bearing area is required.
• Pile use concrete plug shape of button which enlarge
hole in soil during driving.
• It used for length up to 23 m and load up to 50 tones.
• 12 mm thick steel pipe set on concrete button which
have diameter of 25 mm.
• Pipe and button driven to specified depth.
• The casing is removed and concrete is placed with
reinforcement.
UNCASED PILES

•Uncased piles are a type of concrete pile that are more economical
than cased piles, but require more caution during installation. They
are used when the soil is secure enough to support itself.

•The uncased piles are used only where it is certain that neither soil
nor water will fall in to the hole after withdrawing a driven mandrel
or shell and also where adjacent pile will not damage the green
concrete
TYPES OF UNCASED
PILES
• Simplex

• Franki

• Vibro

• Pedestal

• Pressure
SIMPLEX PILES

• Simplex piles can be driven through soft or hard soil.


• Steel tube fitted with a cast iron shoe is driven into
ground up to desired depth.
• If Reinforcement is necessary it put in tube then
concrete is poured in pile.
• Tube is withdrawn slowly without concrete being
tamped.
FRANKI PILE
• It is used at placed where high load is transfer. (ex
.marine structure)
• Plug of dry concrete is formed on ground by heavy
removable pipe shell.
• By help of Diesel operated hammer of 20 to 30 KN
weight plug is driven at desired depth.
• Diameter of pile is 50 to 60 cm, while at enlargement is
about 90 cm.
• Capacity of pile is 60 tones to 90 tones.
VIBRO PILE
• This type of pile is best suited for places where the ground is soft and offers little frictional resistance
to the flow of concrete.

• Pile are formed by driving a steel tube and shoe, filling with concrete and withdraw steel tube.

• Diameter of pile 35 to 50 cm for load of 60 to 70 tones. Length of pile is 25 m and above.

• Steel tube fitted with cast iron shoe by 2-2.5 tone hammer by 40 blow per minute, with stroke about
1.4 m

• When shoe and tube reached the desired level tube is filled with concrete and tube is withdrawn at
80 blow per minute by hammer.

•Steel tube is withdrawn leaving the shoe in place and pile is formed with corrugation along its height.
PEDESTAL PILE
• It is used where thin bearing stratum is reached with reasonable depth.

• Pedestal pile gives the effect of spread footing on thin bearing stratum.

• Core and casing are driven together into the ground till reached the
desired level.

• Core is taken out and a charge of concrete is placed in the tube.

• The core is again placed in the casing to rest on the top of poured
concrete.

• Pressure is applied on the concrete though the core, and as the same
time the casing is withdrawn.
PRESSURE PILES
• These piles are especially suitable for congested site where heavy vibration and noise are not
permissible.

• Boring is done up to required depth to tube.

• After withdrawn boring tool reinforcement is placed if required.

• A layer of concrete is laid and pressure cap is provided at the top of tube.

• Compressed air is admitted through pipe which cause rise the tube.

• Tube is lifted same time of concreting is doing by means of compressed air.

• Care should be taken that some portion of concrete remain at bottom when tube is
lifting for receiving new layer.
