Execution of Special Geotechnical Works - Displacement Piles
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12699 standard provides guidelines for the execution of displacement piles, which are used in geotechnical works. Displacement piles are installed in the ground without excavation or removal of material, except for specific reasons such as limiting heave, vibration, removing obstructions, or assisting penetration. Different methods such as impact, vibration, pressing, screwing, or a combination of these techniques can be used to drive the piles into the ground.
This standard covers different materials that can be used for displacement piles, including steel, cast iron, concrete, timber, grout, or a combination of these materials. It establishes general principles for the execution of these piles, ensuring proper installation and performance.
