A pile is a type of foundation that is used in building construction when the founding material around the property is not stable enough to support a conventional slab and footings.

We provide expert advice and design solution to timber, steel or concrete bored/driven piles for the site specific needs.

Types of piling design

• Underlying founding material is unstable
• Slab and footings are undermined by the neighbouring excavation work
• Slab and footings may undermined by the future excavation services such as sewer, stormwater, water main pipes
• Excessive loading is proposed to the weak founding materials
• Soil reactivity of underlying material is very high/problematic
