Why reinforcement design in SCD driven piling involves considerations that go beyond a standard bored pile

Reinforcement design for SCD driven piles follows the same fundamental structural principles as any cast in-situ pile, but the driven installation method introduces additional considerations that need to be factored into the design from the outset. The dynamic stresses generated during driving, the permanent contribution of the steel casing to the finished pile, and the range of forces the pile needs to resist in service all influence how the reinforcement is specified and detailed. Capital Piling works closely with structural engineers on this process, and for clients who do not yet have a structural engineer in place, our in house design team can manage the full foundation design from the outset, making sure every element of the reinforcement specification is right for the ground conditions and the structural requirements of the project.
