The quality of your building project relies on the right foundations, which is why we’re here to help you understand the different options available to you and the advantages of each. Steel tubular piles are large hollow tubes that are hammered into the ground using a form of proficient modern accelerated hammer.
Steel tubular piles are extremely robust, offering a strong and adaptable foundation solution for a variety of applications. They are frequently used on sites that have a restricted working area and for projects where a low vibration level is required.
Available in a variety of sizes, steel tubular piles can be used in the majority of ground conditions for most types of structures. During installation the shape and reliability of steel tubular piles is upheld, which means they can penetrate through rocks, boulders and other obstructive ground material without breaking. Several sections can be joined together to result in longer piles for deeper ground conditions, or the steel tubular piles can be supplied as one single length.
There are several benefits to this type of foundation. They can be installed quickly and loaded instantly, since no concrete is necessary. They are also environmentally friendly and the slender section design means they have reduced levels of vibration. What’s more, steel tubular piles do not generate any spoil during the installation process which is ideal in areas with contaminated ground.
