Land Development
SOIL STABILIZATION a general term for any physical, chemical, biological, or combined method of changing a natural soil to meet an engineering purpose. Improving the soil by increasing the weight baring capability, tensile strength and over all performance. In addition to this improving prosses we tied and hold down the soil using concrete and steel barricade , retaining wall , caisson and pilers.
CAISSON is putting a box into underwater and pouring it with concrete.
PILE is a column of material driven by a pile driver.
PIER has a footing.
CAISSON doesn’t have a footing.
Pile doesn’t have a footing.
PIER is typically dug out and cast in place using forms.
CAISSON are driven into surface condition bad rock .
* Pier Foundation * Caisson * Pile Foundation *
PIER foundation is a type of deep foundation, which consists of a cylindrical column of large diameter to support and transfer large superimposed loads to firm strata below.
CAISSON are watertight structures made up of wood, steel or reinforced concrete built above the ground level and then sunken into the ground.
PILE foundation is a type of deep foundation, in which the loads are taken to a low level by means of vertical timber, concrete or steel.
The types of PIER foundations are masonry or concrete piers and drilled caissons.
The types of CAISSON are box, open, pneumatic, monolithic, floating, excavated etc.
The types of PILE foundation are end-bearing piles, friction piles, compaction piles, anchor piles, tension or uplift piles.
PIER is inserted down to the bedrock.
