Got Tension? It’s No Problem for Ductile Iron Piles
Seismic overturning, wind pressures, retaining wall uplift loads or even structural configurations often result in tension demands on foundations. You might be surprised to know that Ductile Iron Piles can offer a deep foundation solution to resist high tension loads, in addition to compression loading. While the unique Plug-and-Drive (bell-spigot) connection […]
Axial Load Testing of Ductile Iron Piles
Unlike other deep foundation systems that may rely only on correlations as indicators of capacity, Ductile Iron Piles are routinely load tested to verify performance and confirm design capacities. One of the more frequent questions that arises is what type of load testing can be performed on Ductile Iron Piles […]
