TP1 was driven through approximately 6 m of overlying sands with little resistance, and then driven through calcareous siltstone up to a depth of 12.7 m (6.7 m into rock). Increased driving resistance was noted by Settgast ( 1980 ) at a depth of about 5 m below top of rock as the pile penetrated about 1 m of calcareous sandstone.Web

When I-piles were driven in compact sand and gravel for bridge piers and abutments, scour undermining often occurred. The H-piles could withstand hard driving, allowing them to be driven deep enough to resist scour. Pipes were used as piles in two different ways.
