Advantages of Pipe Piles
As opposed to other options for deep foundations, pipe piles offer several advantages.
1. They lower costs because they are capable of being tailored to meet specific load bearing requirements.
2. They are simple to drive and install, and they’re easy to inspect and test before use.
3. They are sturdy and unlikely to crack or otherwise get damaged while they are being driven into the ground.
4. Additionally, pipe piles can be added to bolster foundation support after construction and during various phases of construction.
Application of Steel Pipe Pill
Pipe piles can be used for the creation of the following:
• Building foundations
• Bridge foundations
• Highway foundations
• Marine structure foundations
• Dock foundations
• Offshore construction foundations
• Railway foundations
• Oilfield construction foundations
• Communication tower foundations
• Column foundations
Types of Piling Steel Pipes
Based on the different soil environments and requirements, Pipe piling could be divided in open end pile (Unplugged pipe pile) and close end pile pipe(Plugged pipe pile).
As soon as we receive your pipe pile designs, our fabrication division will begin creating your pipe piling. Fabrication is usually carried out in these steps:
Cut out and etch steel plate with CNC plasma cutters.
Bevel the plate ends (if required) to ensure quality welding.
Roll the plate into cylinders.
Weld the longitudinal seam of the cylinder.
Connect cylinders by welding the circumferential seam using our sophisticated submerged arc process.
Forward the pipe pile to T BAILEY INC.’s testing division, where the completed pipe piling must pass rigorous inspection before shipment to the job site.
If project specifies, the steel is blasted and coated to increase longevity.
Our Testing Capabilities Include:
Visual inspection and step by step monitoring of all processes to ensure the best possible quality
Radiographic Testing (RT)
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Dye Penetrant Testing (PT)
Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)
Heat treating and stress relieving
Hardness Testing
Impact Testing
Positive Material Identification (PMI)
Leak Testing
Hydrostatic Testing, up to 2,500 psig
Environmental monitoring and reporting
Soluble Salt Testing
Full blast and lining profile measuring
Dry film thickness testing
Adhesion Testing
Lining continuity (holiday) testing
Piling Steel Pipe Weight and Dimension Tolerances
Pipe pile weights per units (Feet, meter or lengths)
Tolerance allowed: A252 pipe pile weight shall be in +15% or -5% of theoretic weight. OD tolerances at +/-1%, wall thickness +/- 12%.
Lengths: As specified SRL, DRL, or fixed length 20 ft or 40 ft and customized.
Permissible Variations for A252 Piling Steel Pipe
Wall thickness: Not more than 12.5% under the nominal wall thickness specified.
Weights per foot: The weight of any individual length of pipe shall not vary more than 15% over or 5% under the weight specified. Each individual length shall be weighed separately.
Outside diameter: Shall not vary more than plus or minus 1% from the diameter specified.
