What is pile foundation?

Answer Posted / faraheem

Pile foundations are the part of a structure used to carry
and transfer the load of the structure to the bearing
ground located at some depth below ground surface. The main
components of the foundation are the pile cap and the
piles. Piles are long and slender members which transfer
the load to deeper soil or rock of high bearing capacity
avoiding shallow soil of low bearing capacity The main
types of materials used for piles are Wood, steel and
concrete. Piles made from these materials are driven,
drilled or jacked into the ground and connected to pile
caps. Depending upon type of soil, pile material and load
transmitting characteristic piles are classified
accordingly. In the following chapter we learn about,
classifications, functions and pros and cons of piles.
