Centrum Pile System

The Centrum Pile System begins with a continuously reinforced precast

concrete pile, cast in standard square sections from 200mm to 400mm and from

4m in length, increasing in 1m increments to standard lengths of up to 14m.

Larger section sizes and lengths can be manufactured to suit project speciic requirements.

Centrum precast concrete piles are manufactured using the most advanced technology available,

have a high structural capacity which is achieved from the use of high strength sulphate

resisting concrete and are made using exceptionally rigid welded reinforcement cages. This

means that the Centrum Pile can be installed to work at higher concrete stress levels than

would be permissible for piles formed in the ground using traditional cast insitu wet concrete.

The Centrum Pile itself is manufactured to BS EN 12794:2005 = A1 Precast Concrete Products

Centrum Pile Joints The Centrum Pile can be easily and quickly extended when required using a robust

mechanical interlocking joint cast into the pile segment. The Class A pile joints used by

Centrum Precast are recognised as being the strongest, most durable pile joints available.

Class A Joint Mechanism Manufactured to BS EN 12794, the A Joint pretensions

the connection between the pile segments to be

joined, thereby inhibiting the ingress of water or

corrosive agents. Further development has recently

resulted in a new generation of Class A joints.

Class D Joint Single Pin The Class D joint is available for the 200/250/300mm

square piles and manufactured to the same

high standards. This joint is more economical

for use where lateral tension is not an issue.

As part of its growing number of precast foundation elements, Centrum has developed the Centrum Ground Beam which seamlessly integrates with the Centrum Pile system, allowing us to ofer a package foundation solution. The Ground Beam, which is 450mmX450mm in section, is manufactured in the same quality controlled environment as the Centrum Pile to deliver the same high quality product that our customers have come to expect from Centrum.

Suitable for Residential Developments, as well as Retail, Commercial and Industrial units, Aarslef can provide a ‘One Stop Shop’ with a foundation package

to suit all requirements

Centrum Pile Ground Beam

701636 615700

"This Modern Method of Construction ((MMC) is delivered "just in time"

ensuring that the ground beams are placed directly onto the piles and are not taking up valuable storage

space on site"

For the production of reinforcement cages,

Centrum use the latest generation of Welding

Robots unique to the UK. This ofers a high

production rate in the region of 200 linear

metres per hour, all in a quality controlled

environment, ensuring that the cages are

manufactured to our exact requirements in order

to produce high standard precast concrete piles.

The semi automated factory is based on a

mix of 45 insulated moulds, each consisting

of a set of individual square section troughs

catering for all common section sizes.

The moulds travel round the facility on a

system of wheeled chassis and rollers to

each of the various work sections stations.

They travel under the ixed concrete casting

machine for automatic illing with self-

compacting concrete before being stored in the

specially adapted curing chamber. Once cured

the piles are then stripped and stored until

they reach the required strength for driving.
