Precast Concrete Piles: A True Workhorse
/Driven deep into the earth and often unseen, lies one of the most durable and economic foundations produced in the precast concrete industry...piles. Piles are prefabricated, high strength, prestressed concrete columns that act as a support or foundation for structures and bridges. In marine and coastal environments, concrete piles are a true workhorse and have a greater longevity than wood or steel piles.
What makes precast concrete piles superior?
Highly resistant to corrosion
Very adaptable
Economical over the long-haul
Arrive at the job site ready to be driven
Can be spliced together to create longer piles
Can be made in various shapes such as square, round, cylindrical and octagonal
Produced in quality controlled environments with rigorous oversight
