Abstract

The driven ductile iron pile is a simple and economical driven foundation system made from ductile iron pipes. The pipe material is centrifugally-cast ductile iron, which has excellent ductility, strength, and corrosion resistance properties. The material behavior and the manufacturing of the pipes in the plant are described. Questions concerning corrosion are treated. The internal and external bearing capacity is discussed as well as the production of the piles on construction sites. Finally the range of application in practice is presented.
