Steel Piling Materials for Deep Foundations

When surface soils cannot support the weight of a commercial structure or bridge, heavy loads must be transferred to deeper, more stable formations. A properly engineered steel piling foundation offers the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any deep foundation method.

From ASTM A252 Pipe Piles to H-Beams and Sheet Piling, we index the specifications and suppliers that keep your heavy civil projects on solid ground. Read the Terminology Guide →

Driven Pipe Piles

Pipe Piles (ASTM A252)

The workhorse of deep foundations. Cylindrical steel tubes driven open or closed-ended—commonly ERW through 24" OD. Often filled with concrete for high-load capacity.

Steel H-Beams

H-Piles (Bearing Piles)

Dimensionally square structural beams (HP shapes) designed for driving into difficult soil conditions and bedrock where pipe might refuse.

Helical Screw Pile Foundation

Screw Pile Foundations

Also known as helical piles. Engineered for low-vibration installation and extreme tension loads. View torque capacities and shaft grades.

Interlocking Sheet Piles

Steel Sheet Piling

Interlocking Z and U profile sections used to create continuous retaining walls, cofferdams, and bulkheads for marine construction.

Threaded Micropile Casing

Micropiles (Minipiles)

High-strength, small-diameter steel casing (N80/P110) used for foundation retrofits and drilling in restricted access areas.

Large Diameter Spiral Pipe

Spiral Weld (SSAW)

Large diameter pipe manufactured from coiled steel. The most economical method for creating large structural piling and caissons.

Deep Foundations & Steel Piling FAQ

Common questions regarding the selection and installation of steel piling products.

The main types of steel piling include Pipe Piles (cylindrical tubes often filled with concrete), H-Piles (structural beams for bedrock penetration), Sheet Piling (interlocking sections for retaining walls), and Helical Screw Piles (for low-vibration tension loads).
Steel piling offers a significantly higher strength-to-weight ratio than concrete. It can be driven through dense soils or rock where pre-cast concrete would fracture, it is much easier to splice (weld) and extend on the job site, and it displaces less soil during installation, reducing site disruption.
Steel pipe and H-piles can be driven to virtually any depth required to reach load-bearing strata or bedrock. By welding (splicing) sections together on-site using specialized pile splicers, it is common for steel deep foundations to be driven beyond 150 to 200 feet in major marine and highway bridge projects.
