Abstract
The porous displacement piles comprising (a) closed-ended pipe piles with small holes and or narrow slots, filled with compacted sandy soil, (b) closed-ended porous pipe piles such as closed-ended pipe pile with very small holes and or very narrow slots, and (c) a precast prestressed porous concrete piles are driven through inside the already driven non-displacement hollow pipe piles in a grid pattern to create excess pore-water pressures generally ranging between 50 and 1500 kPa in cohesive soils, which begin dissipating through inside the porous displacement piles to rapidly consolidate and densify the said cohesive soil. The porous displacement piles are designed for permitting free flow of the pressurized pore-water and to prevent migration of particles of cohesive soil into the porous displacement pile using filter design criteria or verified by laboratory tests. These piles when driven in sandy soils densify sandy soils instantaneously.
