List of featured suppliers of PILING Bearing Piles on Building Products Index
Piling refers to the process of driving long slender columns made of concrete, steel, or timber, deep into the ground. These columns, known as bearing piles, are primarily used to support heavy structures such as buildings, bridges, and offshore platforms. Bearing piles are designed to transfer the load of the structure above to a more competent stratum or layer of soil or rock below, which can withstand the load without excessive deformation, settlement or failure. The installation of bearing piles may involve a variety of techniques, including impact driving, vibratory driving, and drilling methods.
