Ground mount on concrete piles, for rocky or sandy soil where pile drivers are not suitable.
FERO design drawings. Photos of installed structures are on the project pages linked below.
P2 concrete pile shares its frame and materials with P2 pile driven and changes the foundation. Concrete piles give a stable base on rocky or sandy ground where driving piles is not practical. The structure is SS400 iron, hot-dip galvanized to ASTM A123 with a 90 micron coating, with galvanized structure fasteners and SS304 module fasteners. The foundation is set from the soil bearing capacity and the load at the site.

Common questions
When do I need concrete piles instead of driven piles?
When the soil is too rocky or too sandy for reliable pile driving. Concrete piles give a stable foundation on that ground.
What wind speed is it designed for?
The standard design basis is 35 m/s, about 126 km/h. Coastal and exposed sites can need a higher basis, set from the site location and the height of the structure.
Is this the same product as P2 pile driven?
Same frame and materials, different foundation. Choose the foundation that matches the soil at your site.
