Answer / joe
Piled foundations can be of various types. They
can be used to transmit the loads from the foundations
through weak, compressible,
or unstable strata, to firmer ground beneath (end
bearing piles). In
clay and other cohesive soils piles can be used to
distribute the loads
into the ground through the friction forces along the
length of the pile
sides

Answer / atanu cool bhuniya
Piling is a technique used extensively by contractors to set a deep foundation for structures such as buildings. By driving and embedding piles of wood, concrete or steel into the deep soil of the ground, the piling contractors are able to provide a strong support to the building structure at the foundation level - a pre requisite for any construction project.
Factors such as the size, capacity & scope of the project, the condition of the soil immediately beneath the ground, and space required for rigging, all need to be taken into consideration before beginning the piling process. As opposed to a shallow foundation, a deep foundation is used to transfer the load of the structure to the deeper, stronger layer of the soil which has a high bearing capacity and can take the load, thus supporting the structure well.
The commonly used Piling materials include wood, concrete or steel - precast concrete piles, vertical columns of wood, steel sheet piles & timber piles etc.
