Well established design methodologies Equipment can break up practically all kinds
Soil / rock can be inspected before, during and of obstructions
after construction Construction equipment are quite mobile
Construction materials can be inspected before, Materials forming pile are not governed by
during and after construction handling and driving stresses
Well established construction methods Can be installed without appreciable noise or
Pile integrity can be reliably assessed vibration
Depth and diameter can be varied easily No ground heave
Can be constructed in nearly any type of Can be installed in conditions of low headroom
