Prestressed High Strength Concrete (PHC) Pile

Background:
Pretensioned High-Performance Concrete (PHC) piles were first invented in Japan in the 1970’s as a means to provide a solid base for building structures in a rapidly growing and earthquake prone country. Since their invention in Japan, PHC piles have been used widely in developed countries such as USA, Germany, Italy, as well as Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam and played a key role in rapid development of China and southeast Asia.
PHC pile is one of the types of piles are widely used in the world construction, for example in building and bridge. PHC pile is a prestressed concrete pile with circular hollow section.

Overview:
PHC piles are hollow, precast and prestressed concrete piles, in sizes generally ranging from 300 to 600mm outside diameter, that are fabricated by prestressing methods. The dimension of PHC pile that is generally used according to Japan Industrial Standard (JIS) 5335 1987.
PHC pile is one of the types of piles are widely used in the world construction, for example in building and bridge. PHC pile is a prestressed concrete pile with circular hollow section. It is advisable to analyzing of methods of increasing the strength and reliability of PHC pile due to earthquake loads, either by modifying the longitudinal reinforcement and confinement. In addition, it is about the failure patterns of PHC pile due to seismic loads.
