What is Pile Driving?

Pile driving is a commonly used method of constructing structure foundations.

To support the structure, a pre-fabricated steel or concrete beam or "pile" is hammered into the soil until it reaches a hard layer of earth beneath the structure foundation.

Activity is best carried out during the daytime due to:

• Significant noise
• More vibration
