TEKCON SPECIAL FEATURES AND MERITS

SPECIAL FEATURES AND MERITS

1. LARGE BEARING CAPACITY : Due to the Centrifugal Force generated by spinning the pile mould, the concrete is compacted into very dense state leaving hollow core inside of the pile. This method result in Large Bearing Capacity per same given sectional area and in other words TEKCON Spun Piles wight is only 60% of conventional solid concrete piles for same loading capacity.
2. LARGE BENDING MOMENT CAPACITY : The TEKCON Spun Piles are manufactured with the reinforced of high tensile steel bars tensioned precisely and effectively before spinning procedure. This prestressing effect together with high concrete strength contributes to the large flexural strength for Bending Moment Capacity of the piles.
3. EASY HANDLING AND DRIVING : Circular shapes of the piles helps unloading by using ropes and manpower only. High flexural strength will prevent cracks during handling. Low unit weight per given capacity enhances the driving efficiency.
4. QUICK DELIVERY : Concrete strength of more than 60 N/mm2 can be obtained easily after steam curing, which shortens the time of delivery after the receipt of order.
5. HIGH RESISTANCE AGAINST SHOCK : By the uniform induction of the prestress to the piles, TEKCON Spun Piles compensate tensile stress cause by catoptric waves generated by driving which usually cause piles to cracks. Driving shock resistance and load resistance of TEKCON Spun Piles are extremely high, so these piles are most appropriate for a construction requiring the penetration into intermediate layers with considerably high N-values.
6. STRONG JOINT AND EASY TO EXTEND OF THE PILE LENGTH : On completion of welding work, the welded joint become instantaneously as strong as the pile body.
7. HIGH RELIABILITY AND ECONOMY : TEKCON Spun Piles are manufactured in integrated production line facilities, so that the piles are uniform in Quality and steady in Quantity. It can minimize any change of hair cracks during handling the piles, also have high resistance to corrosion of prestressing bar, and the high concrete density will provide high resistance to sulphate attack in Marine structures. Therefore, TEKCON Spun Piles are more economical than any other type of foundation, with the afore mentioned merits taken into account.
