ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES COMPARING RC SQUARE PILES

NUMBER OF PILES REDUCED DUE TO HIGHER BEARING CAPACITY
COST OF INSTALLATION SAVING DUE TO LESS DRIVABILITY RESISTANCE
CONSTRUCTION PERIOD REDUCTION
DURABILITY DUE TO CONCRETE STRENGTH AND PRE-TENSIONING
FASTER DELIVERY TO THE PROJECTS
STABLE QUALITY AND HIGHER PRODUCTIVITY DUE TO MANUFACTURING IN FACTORY
LENGTH COULD VARY FROM 3 TO 15 METER BASED ON CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS
COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AROUND 70 Mpa WHERE RC SQUARE ONES ARE ONLY 30 -DESIGNERS FAVORITE PILE
HIGHER BENDING MOMENT DUE TO PRE-TENSIONING – DESIGNERS FAVORITE PILE
COMPETITIVE PRICE
CHEAPER AND EASIER TRANSPORTATION DUE TO LOWER WEIGHT OF PILE
EASIER QUALITY CONTROL AFTER PILING FOR BEING HOLLOW
HIGHER TENSILE STRENGTH DUE TO PRE-TENSIONING
