			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Pile Foundation</span><br />
<br />
The system of piles, and pile caps, that transfers structural loads to bearing soils or bedrock.<br />
<br />
A pile foundation is defined as a series of columns constructed or inserted into the ground to transmit loads to a lower level of subsoil. A pile is a long cylinder made up of a strong material, such as concrete. <br />
Piles transfer the loads from structures to hard strata, rocks, or soil with high bearing capacity. <br />
The piles support the structure by remaining solidly placed in the soil. <br />
As pile foundations are set in the soil, they are more tolerant to erosion and scour.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Types of piles </span><br />
Depending on their function types of piles are classified as <br />
<ol type="1" class="mycode_list"><li>bearing piles<br />

A foundation is provided for the following purposes:<br />

To distribute the total load coming on the structure on a larger area.<br />
To support the structures.<br />
To give enough stability to the structures against various disturbing forces, such as wind and rain.<br />
To prepare a level surface for concreting and masonry work. <br />
