Precast concrete is a material that is used for fabricating driven piles:
True
False
The main difference between a driven pile and a bored pile is:
Bored piles are hammered into the ground.
Bored piles have a hole drilled first, then they are cast into the ground, insitu.
Driven piles use an auger drill that drives into the ground, creating a hole. The pile is then cast insitu.
Driven piles are hammered into the ground.
How is a GROUND BEAM different to a STRIP FOOTING?
They are not different. A ground beam is essentially another name for a strip footing since they provide the same function.
A ground beam supports point loads, where a strip footing supports uniformly distributed loads.
Both are foundation systems, but a ground beam spans across tops of piles, where a strip footing transfers loads directly to solid bearing ground.
Both are foundation systems that must be used when the solid bearing strata is deep in the ground.
The primary function of a PILE CAP is to act as a shallow pad foundation pad that is located directly under a column, and the pad is in contact with solid bearing soil:
True
False
