Micropile

Micropiles are piles with a small diameter that serve to dissipate axial tensile and/or compressive forces into the subsoil. They are used, for example, as foundation elements in deep foundations. Micropiles are inserted into the ground using the drilling or displacement method. They can be both temporary and permanent.
