When the soil below a particular level at which footing has to be established is extremely weak Equipment Hiring and is unable to provide the proper support, the transfer of loads in the form of piles is done at a greater depth. This helps in providing the appropriate support.
The small cross sectional area made of varied
length form the structural composition of the piles. They are put inside the
field using a hammer or a vibrator. Hammer is attached to a driver. The single
column also called the wall requires enough support and this support is
provided by a group of piles clustered together into the rows.
A column might need to be lightly loaded and for loading the column
lightly, only a single pile might be required. Though after doing the research
of the field, it might be required to place a pile in a particular planned
location yet the pile might not get located at the actual planned position.
Therefore, to ensure that the pile gets located at the desired place, the
eccentric loading of the pile is necessary.
The grade beams are used for making the heads of the single piles be in
both the directions and for doing this a device is fitted to the piles. In case
if the requirement is only of two piles, the heads of both the piles are
connected using a cap braced into a specific direction. This direction is
mostly perpendicular to the place or the line that joins both the piles.
Stronger caps are provided for joining three or more piles and these are
supposed to be stronger irrespective of the non-usage of the grade beams.
The lateral loads can be resisted by using the vertical piles. Let’s
take an example-A tall chimney where the wind keeps blowing would obviously
need vertical piling Construction of Pile Foundation to avoid the damage due to the wind. This is because when
compared, the lateral capacity is smaller than the axial capacity. The greatest
support that can be attained can be through the usage of twelve verticals.
