Piling is a foundational technique essential for stabilising and supporting structures in construction projects. This method involves driving columns, known as piles, deep into the ground. The purpose of piling is to transfer structural loads from buildings or other structures to deeper, more stable layers of soil or rock. By distributing the weight of the structure over a larger area and reaching load-bearing substrata, piling helps prevent settlement and enhances stability. Additionally, it withstands various environmental conditions, such as soil movement and water pressure. There are different types of piles and methods, each tailored to specific soil conditions and project requirements. Consequently, piling plays a crucial role in ensuring the longevity, safety, and integrity of buildings and infrastructure projects.

Piling is essential in construction projects for several key reasons. First, it provides crucial support by transferring the weight of buildings and infrastructure to deeper, more stable soil or rock layers, preventing settlement and ensuring long-term stability.

Piling also mitigates risks associated with challenging soil conditions, like soft or expansive soils, which could otherwise weaken the structure over time.

It is especially important in London given most of the capital is formed/constructed apon or directly over the highly shrinkable and changeable; London Clay Formation. 

In areas prone to environmental factors like flooding, piling enhances resilience and durability, protecting against damage and reducing future maintenance costs.

By investing in piling, you ensure the safety and longevity of your project, reduce risks, and maximise the value of your investment.
