    This document discusses different types of pile foundations, including precast driven piles, cast-in-situ piles, bored piles, driven steel piles and timber piles. It covers factors that influence pile selection such as structure type and location, ground conditions, durability and cost. Precast concrete piles are generally used for loads up to 80 tonnes while cast-in-situ piles are used for loads up to 75 tonnes. Driven piles are not suitable for ground with boulders or susceptible to heaving, and bored piles are not suitable for loose water-bearing sand. Pile material choice considers durability with concrete preferred for marine conditions. Cost is also an important consideration in final pile selection.

    SEMINAR ON PILE FOUNDATION

    BY
    RAJESH KUMAR.K
    TYPES OF PILE CONSTRUCTION

    • PRECAST DRIVEN PILES


    • DRIVEN CAST-IN-SITU PILES
    • BORED CAST-IN-SITU PILES
    • BORED PRE-CAST PILES
    • DRIVEN STEEL PILES
    • DRIVEN TIMER PILES
    PRECAST CONCRETE PILES

    • THE PRECAST CONCRETE PILES ARE GENERALLY USED FOR MAXIMUM LOAD OF 80 TONNES
    • THE SIZE OF PILE MAY VARY FROM 30CM TO 50CM
    • THESE PILES REQUIRE HEAVY PILE DRIVING MACHINERY
    • REINFORCEMENT OF 20 TO 40MM IN DIAMETER
    PRECAST PILES
    CAST-IN-SITU CONCRETE PILES

    • THE CAST IN SITU CONCRETE PILES ARE GENERALLY OF LOAD 75 TONNES


    • THEY ARE INSTALLED BY PRE-EXCAVATION
    • ELIMINATING VIBRATION DUE TO HANDLING STRESSES
    CAST-IN-SITU PILES
    BORED PILES
    FACTORS INFLUENCING CHOICE OF PILE

    • LOCATION AND TYPE OF STRUCTURE


    • GROUND CONDITIONS
    • DURABILITY
    • COST
    LOCATION AND TYPE OF STRUCTURE

    • DRIVEN CAST-IN-PLACE TYPES ARE USUALLY THE CHEAPEST FOR MODERATE LOADINGS
    • FOR HEAVY STRUCTURES EXERTING LARGE FOUNDATION LOADS, LARGE-DIAMETER BORED
    PILES ARE USUALLY THE MOST ECONOMICAL.
    GROUND CONDITIONS

    DRIVEN PILES CANNOT BE USED ECONOMICALLY IN GROUND CONTAINING BOULDERS, OR IN


    CLAY WHEN GROUND HEAVE WOULD BE DETRIMENTAL. SIMILARLY, BORED PILES WOULD NOT BE
    SUITABLE IN LOOSE WATER-BEARING SAND, AND UNDER-REAMED BASES
    DURABILITY

    • THIS TENDS TO AFFECT THE CHOICE OF MATERIAL. FOR EXAMPLE, CONCRETE PILES ARE
    USUALLY USED IN MARINE CONDITIONS SINCE STEEL PILES ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO CORROSION
    IN SUCH CONDITIONS AND TIMBER PILES CAN BE ATTACKED BY BORING MOLLUSCS
    COST

    • IN COMING TO THE FINAL DECISION OVER THE CHOICE OF PILE, COST HAS CONSIDERABLE
    IMPORTANCE. THE OVERALL COST OF INSTALLING PILES INCLUDES THE ACTUAL COST OF THE
    MATERIAL, THE TIMES REQUIRED FOR PILING IN THE CONSTRUCTION PLAN, TEST LOADING, THE
    COST OF THE ENGINEER TO OVERSEE INSTALLATION
    UNDERREAMED PILES

    • UNDERREAMED PILES ARE BORED CAST-IN-SITU CONCRETE PILES HAVING ONE OR MORE BULBS
    FORMED BY ENLARGING THE PILESTEM WITH A SUITABLE CUTTING TOOL. ENLARGED BASE IN
    THE FORM OFUNDERREAM BULB MADE IN THE STRATA OF GOOD BEARINGPROVIDES LARGER
    BEARING AREA AND PILES OF GREATER BEARING CAPACITY CAN BE CONSTRUCTED
    CONCLUSION

    • PILES ARE OFTEN USED BECAUSE ADEQUATE BEARING CAPACITY CANNOT BE FOUND AT
    SHALLOW ENOUGH DEPTHS TO SUPPORT THE STRUCTURAL LOADS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO
    UNDERSTAND THAT PILES GET SUPPORT FROM BOTH END BEARING AND SKIN FRICTION. THE
    PROPORTION OF CARRYING CAPACITY GENERATED BY EITHER END BEARING OR SKIN
    FRICTION DEPENDS ON THE SOIL CONDITIONS.
