ISOLATED STEEL PILES

Steel bearing piles Steel bearing piles are commonly carried out by a Specialist Contractor and whose advice should be sought to arrive at accurate costing. However the following items can be used to assess a budget cost for such work. The item for number of pile extensions includes for the cost of setting up the rig at the pile position together with welding the extension to the top of the steel bearing pile. The items for length of pile extension cover the material only, the driving cost being included in Class P. Number of pile extensions at each position - - - - nr 255.50
