What is SCD driven piling?

A foundation method built on proven structural performance

SCD driven piling, or steel cased driven piling, is a foundation method in which a steel casing is driven into the ground using a hydraulic hammer until it reaches the required depth or encounters suitable bearing resistance. Once at depth, a reinforcement cage is placed inside the casing and concrete is poured to form a structural pile capable of transferring building loads from the structure above down into competent ground below.

It is a method with a long track record in UK construction, valued for its ability to perform reliably in ground conditions where bored piling methods can struggle. The steel casing provides continuous support to the bore throughout installation, which removes the dependency on the ground being stable enough to maintain an open bore that methods like SFA piling require.
