High-Strength Precast Concrete Piles

Franki precast piles are high-strength precast concrete piles that incorporate a mechanical joint, allowing piles to be spliced quickly and driven to the required depth. Precast piles offer the benefits of driven piles with the economies of a mass-produced product. Franki maintains its own casting facilities to produce piles in varying lengths and sizes to suit different site conditions.

PRECAST PILES

The Franki precast pile is a high


strength high capacity precast
concrete pile which incorporates a
mechanical joint, allowing piles to be
spliced quickly and then driven to
any required depth.

Precast piles offer the geotechnical


efficiency of a driven pile with the
economies of a mass produced
product. A rigorous quality assurance
program throughout the casting,
driving and testing process ensures a
consistently reliable product with
high strength and durablitiy. Precast
piles are most suited to ground
conditions where soft upper strata
overlie a hard bearing layer and in
areas with clay or silt deposits.

Franki maintains its own casting


facilities which enables it to cater for
varying site conditions with a range
of stock pile lengths & sizes.

Franki maintains in house casting


capacity sufficient to customise pile
lengths for individual sites and to
cater for site variability without the
need for long casting periods prior
to job commencement.
PRECAST PILES

LOAD CAPACITY

Franki precast piles are manufactured


from high strength concrete using
state of the art technology. Structural
load capacities are based on an
independent testing and research
program.

Piles are driven using the most


sophisticated piling machines
operating in Australia.These are
equipped with efficient hydraulic
hammers for faster installation and
lower pile stresses during driving.

The geotechnical strength and


serviceability are determined using
analytical methods applicable to
displacement piles and parameters
THE PILE JOINT based largely on intensive static and
dynamic load test results.
Franki uses a range of jointing
systems including a pinned pile joint Other driven preformed piles offered
which prestresses the pile sections by Franki include:
together. Pins are automatically
locked in by a spring washer to • Steel H Piles.
ensure the full transmission of forces • Steel Tube Piles.
during driving and an anti-corrosion • Timber Piles.
compound in the locking block • Pre-stressed concrete Piles.
efffectively seals the area between • Hollow Spun concrete Piles.
the joint plates and the locking
mechanism against water ingress.

The joint is designed and proof


tested to ensure that where
necessary the compression, tension
and bending stresses are similar to
that of the pile section.
