Foundation-Pile Installation

Pile installation method influences the soil condition adjacent to its surface, and eventually affects the soil shear strength along the shaft.

There are two types of pile based on their installation method: displacement piles and non-displacement piles.

The installation of displacement piles involves the displacement and disturbance of soil. Some examples of displacement piles are driven steel or precast piles.

The installation of non-displacement piles typically involves the removal of soil via boring or drilling to form shaft. Then, concrete is being poured and casted in the shaft to form the pile.
