Abstract
The construction of a large diameter thin-wall cast-in-situ concrete pipe (PCC) pile for ground improvement for embankment construction in Yan-Tong Expressway in China is presented in this paper. PCC piling is a new piling technique which combines the advantages of a few techniques, including prestressed concrete pile, the vibratory drilled pile, and the vibro-piling cased curtain. A PCC pile has an outer diameter of approximately 1 m with a wall thickness about 0.1 m. The construction parameters including the slump, casing pulling speeding, and piling sequence were studied in the field. The possible quality problems are also discussed in the paper followed by preventive measures and solutions.
