What is skewers? The oblique way is underground

A few days ago, there was a case of a baby in Dong Thap falling down a concrete pole, many people still wonder what the skewers are? And how to skew into the ground. Today we will learn about what the term oblique is in construction.

What is skewers?

Skewering, also known as piling, means putting the stake into the ground. Piling is the process of drilling foundations through the ground to provide additional structural strength to the underlying soft soil. Piling prepares the ground to carry heavy loads, such as a new house, road or bridge.

Construction engineers use pile (many of you misspelled it) to secure the foundation of the building before they start construction. This is an important step in the construction process that contractors use to increase project safety and reliability. If you are working in the construction industry, it is essential to have an understanding of the different types and methods of piling.

Oblique pile, also known as oblique pile, is a construction term about bringing a high concrete column into the ground to be a construction pile.

What is a pile?

Piles are usually long piles made of wood, steel or concrete. Its shape, girth and weight can vary depending on the conditions of the soil and the needs of the project. For example, piles may need to carry lifting loads to support taller structures, such as skyscrapers. In this case, engineers need to consider overturning forces from wind or waves. Basically, pile foundations work by distributing the weight of heavy construction over a wider surface area.

When to skew

There are several factors to consider when using skewers during construction. The main purpose is to ensure the safety and strength of the ground before workers build anything above. Here are a few situations when using a bevel system may be necessary:

• When the groundwater level is high
• When the superstructure’s heavy loads require extra support
• Other types of nails are more expensive or not feasible
• When the soil is at a shallow depth under compression
• When there is a possibility of erosion, due to its location near the river bed or the coast
• When there is a channel or a deep drainage system near the building
• When it is not possible to dig the soil to the desired depth due to bad soil conditions
• When it is not possible to keep the nail groove dry by pumping or by any other means
