Pilling Works

Piling is the process of driving or boring pile foundations into the ground beneath a building that is under construction. These piles transfer loads from the structure to the ground, helping to support it. Pile foundations are often used where the ground is too weak to underpin the structure. A hole a little larger than the pile diameter and the full length of the pile is dug into the ground using an apparatus like a soil boring machine. Step 2: a precast concrete pile is lowered or pushed into the hole. Step 3: a concrete grout is poured into the gap between the pile and the earth.
