Piling is both an art and science. The art lies in selecting the most suitable type of pile and method of installation for the ground conditions and the from of the loading. Science enables the engineer to predict the behaviour of the piles once they are in the ground and subject to loading. This behaviour is influenced profoundly by the method used to install the piles, and it cannot be predic…
