Ductile Iron Piles
Description
Ductile iron piles are made from cast iron GJS 450-10 in sections of 5.00 or 5.65 m working length (for container loading) and driven into the soil by an excavator with a suitable hydaulic hammer. Non-grouted end bearing piles are mainly for projects with a solid stratum while grouted piles are used where skin friction can be activated.
We offer the complete system including pile driving shoes for grouted and non-grouted piles as well as different adapters to connect the pile top to the hydraulic hammer.
Advantages
- Ductile iron piles can be driven by standard hydraulic excavators of 25 - 35 tons operating weight
- The socket and spigot connection is fast, reliable and does not need any welding
- Therefore the pile length can easily be adjusted to meet different ground conditions and load requirements
- Low vibration by the hydraulic hammer allows installation of piles close to existing structures
- Due to high carbon and silicon content ductile iron has higher corrosion resistence than steel
- Excellent driving performance make these piles a very economical foundation solution for many applications

The internal load bearing capacity is calculated according to the requirements in the EAD, section 2.2.1. The safety coefficient Ymo is set to 1 according to EN 1993-1-1. The load bearing capacity is calculated for the cross section, buckling is not taken into account.
