Compressed concrete piles are satisfactory in any soil that permits placing concrete under pressure. If the soil has little resistance to the concrete flow, casings should be used.

CONT

The concreting is carried out by direct pouring of the fresh concrete into the tube: ... by slices carried out by successive slopings of the concrete with a skip, follow-up of a tamping; in this case the pile is called compressed concrete pile ...
