They are cast-in-place concrete piles installed by rotating a continuous-flight, hollow-shaft auger into the ground to the specified pile depth. Grout is pumped through the auger stem as the auger is being withdrawn. The result is a column of high-strength grout.
Auger Piles are commonly used for compressive design loads up to 125 tons, sometimes more.
Typically 12 inch, 14 inch, 16 inch, 18 inch and 24 inch piles are used; however, there are occasions when 30 inch piles have been placed successfully.
The piles are easily reinforced either by placing the steel into the pile after it is grouted, before the grout sets up, or by placing single rebars through the hollow stem before grouting.
Auger Piles can be statically tested in compression, tension and laterally
using standard ASTM procedures.
