Keller Displacement Piling systems are in growing demand, particularly on contaminated sites where the cost of spoil removal is becoming increasingly expensive.
Driven Cast Insitu
Highly efficient, the Keller Driven Cast Insitu Pile is designed to make maximum use of the available skin friction and end bearing potential of the surrounding soil. It is capable of achieving high working loads in a variety of weak subsoil conditions, regardless of water table.
Robust, the construction method used is ideally suited to piling 'brownfield sites' where obstructions can frequently create programme and cost control problems.The Keller Driven Pile system can frequently drive through obstructions that would create problems for other piling techniques.
Environmentally Friendly
Apart from the key benefit of not producing spoil, the cast insitu construction process also provides a tight bond to the surrounding soil and limits the potential of vertical migration of soil contaminates.
Soil Types
The Keller Driven Pile is ideally suited to granular soils above or below the water table but it also develops high working loads in weak rocks such as marl and chalk. In addition, the pile can be used effectively in silty or sandy clays. The driving resistance and the soil profile are correlated to control the length of each pile to ensure that the design requirements are achieved.
Driven Pile Sizes and Capacities
Keller Driven Piles are constructed in a range of sizes.
