Production of Foundation Piles with Slipformer S-Liner® - Echo Precast Engineering

The specific construction of the Slipformer S-Liner® and the use of zero-slump concrete (dry concrete) make it exceptionally cost-efficient and easy to use and maintain. Foundation piles are used in order to span with posts ground strata, which are not very stable or are unstable. The concrete posts are driven into the foundation material until a sufficiently load-bearing soil or rock stratum is reached. The loads of the supporting structure are then borne either by the friction of the post with the foundation material or the point-bearing pressure of the posts. Foundation piles are used for a wide spectrum of uses from simple hangars through applications in fruit and vine cultivation up to wind turbines.
