2. Pile foundation • Introduction • Use of piles • Selection of type of pile • Types of piles • Pile cap and pile shoes • Pile driving equipment and method • Micro piling • Pulling of piles • Causes of failure
of pile
3. Types of foundation • Shallow foundation • Deep foundation • Pile foundation • Co erdam foundation • Caissons foundation
4. What is pile ? • A pile is a slender structural member made of concrete, steel, wood or composite material. • A pile is either driven into the soil or formed in-site by excavating a hole and filling it with
concrete.
5. Pile foundation • Pile foundation is that type of deep foundation in which the loads are taken to a low level by means of vertical members which may be Timber Concrete steel
6. Uses of Piles • The load of the super-structure is heavy and its distribution is uneven. • The top soil has poor bearing capacity. • The subsoil water is high so that pumping of water from the open
trenches for the shallow foundation is di icult and uneconomical. • Large fluctuation in subsoil water level. • The structure is situated on sea shore or river bed, where there is danger of scouring
action of water. • Canal or deep drainage line exist near the foundation. • For foundation of transmission towers and o -shore platforms which are subjected to upli forces.
7. Scouring O shore platform Transmission Tower
8. Factor A ecting Selection Of Type Of Piles • Nature and type of structure • Location • Material, equipment and fund availability • Type of soil and its properties • Ground water table • Durability of
pile • Length and number of pile • Case study of adjacent building • Facility for pile driving • Erosion of soil near structure
9. Classification of Piles • Based on function • Based on materials • Based on method of installation
10. Based on function • End bearing Pile • Friction Pile • Compaction Pile • Tension Pile • Anchor Pile • Fender Pile • Better Pile • sheet Pile
11. End bearing Pile • Penetrate through the so soil • Bottom or tips rest on hard strata • Work as column • For this pile Qu=Qp where, Qu=ultimate load Qp= Pile load
12. Friction Pile • Loose soil extend to a greater depth • Pile are driven at depth when friction resistance developed equal to load • In that case Qu=Qs (Qs= skin friction) • Total friction resistance can be
increased • Increasing length and diameter • Making Pile surface rough • Placing closely or grouping of pile
13. Compaction Pile • Pile do not carry any load • For increase the bearing capacity of soil
14. Tension pile • When structure subjected to upli due to hydrostatic pressure or over turning moment • Also known as upli pile
15. Anchor piles • These provided anchorage against the horizontal pull from sheet pulling or any other pulling.
16. Fender pile • These are used to protect water front structures against impact from ships or other floating objects.
17. Better Pile • They are used for resist large horizontal forces or inclined forces.

20. Concrete Piles • Pre cast piles • Cast-in-situ • Pre stressed
21. Pre Cast Concrete Pile • It is those which are manufactured in factory or at a place away from the construction site and then driven into ground at the place required. • It requires heavy pile driving
machinery. • It may be square, octagonal or circular in cross section. • Size of pile vary from 30 cm to 50 cm in cross section and up to 20 m or more length. • Grade of concrete should be M20.
22. Cast In Situ • A bore is dug into the ground by inserting a casing. • Bore is filled with cement concrete a er placing reinforcement • The casing be kept in position or it may be withdraw. • The piles
with casing are known as cased cast in situ concrete pile. • The piles without casing are known as uncased cast in situ concrete pile.
23. Cased • Raymond piles • Mac Arthur piles • BSP base driven piles • Swage piles • Button bottom piles
24. Raymond Pile • It used primarily as a friction pile. • It is provided with uniform taper of 1 in 30 shorter pile. • The length of piles vary from 6 to 12 m. • Top diameter= 40 to 60 cm. • Bottom diameter
= 20 to 30 cm • Collapsible mandrel is driven into ground. • When the pile is driven to the desired depth mandrel is collapsed and withdraw. • The shell is gradually filled with concrete up to the top.
25. Mac Arthur pile • Mac Arthur is pile of uniform diameter using the corrugated steel shell which remain in place as in Raymond piles. • A heavy steel casing with a core is driven into the ground. •
When the desired depth is reached, the core is withdrawn and a corrugated steel shell is placed in the casing. • Concrete is placed in the shell by gradually compacting and withdrawing the steel
casing.
26. BSP base driven piles • This pile consist of a helically welded shell of steel plate. • A concrete plug is provided at the bottom of the shell. • Driving is done by allowing hammer to fall on the concrete
plug. • The casing is driven to the desired depth and then it is filled with concrete.
27. Swage piles • It is used with advantage of driving in very hard or it is designed to leave water tight shell for some time filling of the concrete. • steel shell is placed on a precast concrete plug • Pipe
is driven over plug until the core reached the plug, then pipe is swage out by tapper of plug which form water tight joint. • Pipe is driven up to specified depth by help of driven force of core. • Core is
removed and pipe is filled with concrete.
28. Button Bottom piles • It is used where increase of end bearing area is required. • Pile use concrete plug shape of button which enlarge hole in soil during driving. • It used for length up to 23 m and
load up to 50 tones. • 12 mm thick steel pipe set on concrete button which have diameter of 25 mm. • Pipe and button driven to specified depth. • The casing is removed and concrete is placed with
reinforcement.

blow per minute, with stroke about 1.4 m • When shoe and tube reached the desired level tube is filled with concrete and tube is withdrawn at 80 blow per minute by hammer. • Steel tube is
withdrawn leaving the shoe in place and pile is formed with corrugation along its height.
33. Pedestal Pile • It is used where thin bearing stratum is reached with reasonable depth. • Pedestal pile gives the e ect of spread footing on thin bearing stratum. • Core and casing are driven
together into the ground till reached the desired level. • Core is taken out and a charge of concrete is placed in the tube. • The core is again placed in the casing to rest on the top of poured concrete. •
Pressure is applied on the concrete though the core, and as the same time the casing is withdrawn.
34. Pressure Pile • These piles are especially suitable for congested site where heavy vibration and noise are not permissible. • Boring is done up to required depth to tube. • A er withdrawn boring
tool reinforcement is placed if required. • A layer of concrete is laid and pressure cap is provided at the top of tube. • Compressed air is admitted through pipe which cause rise the tube. • Tube is li ed
same time of concreting is doing by means of compressed air. • Care should be taken that some portion of concrete remain at bottom when tube is li ing for receiving new layer.

36. H-piles • These pile are usually of wide flange section. • They are suitable for trestle type structure in which pile extend above ground level and act as column. • They have small cross section area,
there for they can be easily driven In soil. • It used as long pile with high bearing capacity.
37. Box Piles • They are rectangular or octagonal in form filled with concrete. • These pile are used when not possible to drive H-piles into hard strata.
38. Tube Piles • Tubes or piles of steel are driven into the ground. • Concrete is filled inside the tube piles. • Because of circular cross section tube piles are easy to handle and easy to drive in.
39. Timber Piles • These pile are prepared from trunks of trees. • They may be circular or square . • Diameter of pile are 30 to 50 cm and length not exceeding 20 times its top width. • At bottom, a cast-
iron shoe is provided and at the top a steel plate is fixed. • For group pile each pile is brought at same level and concrete plate is provided to have common platform.
40. Composite Piles • This is a type of construction in which piles of two di erent material are driven one over the other. • They act together to perform the function of a single pile. • In this pile
advantage is taken of durability of concrete piles and the cheapest of timber pile. • Timber pile is terminated just at the level of ground water table.
41. Sand Piles • These pile are formed by making hole in ground and fill with the sand and well rammed. • The sand to be used should be moist at time of placing. • Bore hole diameter usually 30 cm.
length of sand pile is kept about 12 times its diameter. • The top of sand pile is filled with concrete. • Sand pile are placed at 2 to 3 m spacing. • Load test should be carried out determining the bearing
capacity of sand pile. • Properly compacted sand pile can carry load up to 100 tone/m2 or more.
42. Classification Based on Method of Installation • Driven pile • Driven and cast-in-situ pile • Bore and cast-in-situ piles • Screw piles • Jacked pile
43. Driven pile • These pile are driven into ground by applying blow with a heavy hammer. • Timber, steel and precast concrete pile are installed by driving.
44. Driven and cast-in-situ pile • These pile are formed by driving a casing with a closed bottom end into the soil . • The casing is later filled with concrete. • The casing may or may not be withdrawn.
45. Bore And Cast-in-Situ Piles • These pile are formed by excavating a hole into the ground and then filling it with concrete.
46. Screw Piles
47. Jacked pile • These piles are jacked into the ground by applying a downward force by a hydraulic jack.
48. Under Reamed Piles • These piles are developed by C.B.R.I for serving foundation for black cotton soils, filled up ground and other type of soil having poor bearing capacity.
49. Under reamed piles • An under reamed pile is bored cast-in-situ concrete pile having one or more bulbs or under reamed in its lower level. • The bulb or under reamed are formed by under
reaming tool. • Diameter of pile is 20 to 50 cm and bulb diameter is 2-3 times of diameter of pile. • Length of pile is 3 to 8 m and spacing between piles are 2 to 4 m. • Load carrying capacity can
increase by making more bulb at the base. • The vertical spacing between two bulb is varies from 1.25 to 1.5 times diameter of bulb. • For black cotton soil the bulb is increase bearing capacity and
also provide anchorage against upli .

58. Hammer driving • Equipment required for hammer driving Pile frame or pile driving rig Pile hammer Leads Winches Miscellaneous equipment
59. Pile Frame Or Pile Driving Rig • Pile drive with crawler mounted crane rig commonly used for pile driving. • The hammer is guided between two parallel steel channel known as leads.
60. Leads • Leads are also called leaders. • It is used to guide hammer and pile for alignment. • In case of drop hammer fixed lead are used. • Lead can be movable and can be adjusted as per the
requirement. • Movable leads are more convenient as they can adjusted as required.
61. Winches • Winches are used for li hammer and pile. • It should be light with single drum provision or heavy with double drums. • Winches may be fitted with reverse gear system. • Winches are
driven with diesel or petrol engines or electrical power in case of drop hammer and pneumatic hammers.
62. Pile hammer • Types of hammer used for driving the pile are; • Drop hammer • Single acting hammer • Double acting hammer • Diesel hammer • Vibratory hammer
63. 1. Drop hammer • The drop hammer is the oldest type of hammer used pile driving. • A drop hammer is rise by a winch and allowed to drop the top of the pile under gravity from a certain height. •
During the driving operation a cap is fixed to the pile and cushion is generally provided between the pile and the cap. • Another cushion known as hammer cushion is placed on the pile cap on which
the hammer causes the impact.
64. 2.Single acting hammer • In this hammer the ram is raised by air or steam under pressure to the required height. • It is then allowed to fall under gravity on the top of the pile cap. • The weight of
hammer is about 1000 kg to 10,000 kg.
65. 3. Double acting hammer • In double acting hammer raise by using air or steam pressure and drop the hammer. • When hammer has been raised to the required height steam or air pressure is
applied to other side of piston and the hammer is pushed downward under pressure. • The weight of the hammer may be about 1000 kg to 2500 kg. • It can be apply 90 to 240 blow per minute. • It is
used for driving light to moderate weight piles in soils of average resistance against driving.
66. Vibratory hammer
67. Pulling Of Pile • To replace the damaged piles during the driving operation. • To reuse the existing piles when the structure above the pile is demolished. • To prepare the data of strata trough
which piles are to be driven by carrying out pulling tests. • To remove the pile which are driven temporarily as in case of a co erdam.
68. Method For Pulling Of Pile • The method for pulling of piles will depend on the type of pile, equipment availability. • Various method are; Use of double acting steam hammer Use of pile
extractors Use of tongs Use of vibrator Use of electricity
69. Pile Extractor
70. Vibration Pulling
71. Failure of Pile
72. Causes Of Failure Of Pile • Most common causes of failure of piles; • Absence of statistical data of nature of soil strata • Load coming on pile is high than design load. • Bad workmanship • Attack by
insets on wood • Breakage due to over driving (timber pile) • Buckling of pile • Damage due to absence of protective cover • Improper type of pile, method of driving, classification of soil • Insu icient
reinforcement in case of R.C.C • Misinterpretation of result from pile load test. • Wrong formula use for determining load bearing capacity.
73. Causes of Failure of R.C.C. piles • Improperly designed concrete mix. • Use of wrong type of cement • Insu icient concrete cover to the reinforcement • Early removal of concrete form. • Use of
aggregate that react with the type of cement.
74. Micro pilling • A Micro pile is a small diameter, typically less than 300mm. • A drilled and grouted non- displacement pile which is heavily reinforced and carries most of its loading on the high
capacity steel reinforcement. • Reinforcement and cement grout are the major component of micro pile. • It also known as mini pile.
75. Construction of micro pile • Following step are carried out for construction of micro pile. Drilling and/or installation of temporary casing Remove inner drilling bit rod. Placing reinforcement
and grouting by tremie. Remove temporary casing, inject further grout under pressure. Complete pile (casing may be le in place of compressible stratum)
76. Application of micro pile • For structure support • New foundation • Under pinning of existing foundation • Seismic retrofitting of existing structure • Scour protection • Excavation support in
confined area • For situ reinforcement • Slop stabilization • Earth retention • Ground strengthening and protection • Settlement reduction
77. Advantages of micro pile • It used to underpin the existing structure where need of minimum vibration • It can be easily laid where low head room is constraint. • It can be installed at any angle. • It
o ers practical and cost e ective solution to costly alternative pile system. • Not require large access road or drilling platforms
78. Pile driving formula • Load carrying capacity of pile can be determine following method; 1. Dynamic formula 2. Static formula
79. Dynamic formula • Dynamic pile formula are useful in estimating pile capacity. • The dynamic formula are based on assumption that the kinetic energy delivered by hammer during driving
operation is equal to the work done in penetrating the pile. Kinematic energy delivered=work done in penetration Whηh = R x s + energy loss W=weight of hammer (KN) h= height of fall of
hammer ηh = E iciency of hammer R= pile resistance taken equal to Qu S=penetration of pile per blow
80. Various Dynamic formula • Engineering News Record (ENR) formula • Hileyʼs formula • Danish formula
81. Engineering News Record formula • As per the Engineering News formula the allowable load of driven pile is given by Qa= Wh F(s+c) Qa= Allowable load in kg W = Weight of hammer h = Height of
fall in mm s = Final settlement per blow known as set c = Empirical constant ( drop hammer= 25 mm, single acting hammer=2.5 mm) F = Factor of safety (Usually taken as 6)
82. Hileyʼs formula • Hileyʼs gave the formula which take into various energy loss. Qu = Whηh (S + C/2) Qu=ultimate load on pile W=weight of hammer h= Height of fall of hammer C=elastic
compression ηh =e iciency of hammer (drop hammer=100%,single acting hammer= 75-85 %,double acting =85%) S= Avg. settlement per blow
83. Danish formula • Qu = Whηh (S + S0/2) S0=Elastic compression of pile S0={2ηh (WhL) (S + S0/2) }1/2 L= Length of pile A= Area of cross section of pile E=Modulus of elasticity of pile material
Allowable
84. Static Formula • In static formula ultimate bearing capacity of pile is considered to the sum of end bearing pile and resistance of skin friction. Qu=Qp +Qs =qp.Ap +fs.As Where, Qp=end bearing
resistance qp= unit end bearing resistance Ap =area at the base Qs= skin friction resistance fs= unit skin friction As= surface area
