Analysis of Issues Related to PHC Pipe Pile Construction
Prestressed high-strength concrete pipe piles, abbreviated as PHC pipe piles, are widely used in industrial and civil buildings, bridges, ports and wharves, hydraulic engineering, and other fields due to their advantages such as low foundation requirements in design, high compressive bearing capacity, strong bending and crack resistance, easily ensured pile quality, short construction period, and environmental friendliness. They are precast concrete components developed on the basis of modern high-performance concrete and prestressing technology, and are also a key project for the promotion of scientific and technological achievements by the Ministry of Construction. Owing to their excellent performance, PHC pipe piles have won the favor of professionals in the construction industry, developed rapidly abroad, and are widely used in Japan, Hong Kong and Macao, and various countries in Southeast Asia.
