PCS pile
The “Pressurized Concrete Screw” or PCS pile is an auger pile with partial soil extraction and lateral soil displacement resulting from injection of concrete under pressure. The pile is formed by means of a helical screw with a hollow stem. Concreting is achieved by injection of fluid concrete under high pressure through the hollow central stem.
Construction sequence

Fields of application
• Execution into highly stratified layers of soil comprising very resistant layers
• As a single pile or as an element of a pile wall (tangent pile wall) à hypertext
• As an alternative solution for large diameter bored piles
• Infrastructure and industrial projects
Environmental impact
• In vibration sensitive areas: no vibration is introduced because the pile is formed by a combined rotation and translation movement
• In a noise-sensitive environment: low noise level generated
• Removal of soil from the job site
• A stable, dry and flat work platform is required
