UBP - British universal bearing piles with wide flanges

Our Advance universal bearing piles range has been developed to reflect current structural design practice and make it easier to specify.The HP and UBP bearing piles are special wide flange H beam sections with the same thickness in the flange and web, this assists with the structural integrity during driving and when obstructions are encountered.Simple confirmation of the bearing capacity by measurement of 'sets' during driving. UPB bearing pile can be provided in various steel grades with yield strength up to 460 MPa.

Please refer to 'related documents and links' to the right of the screen for detailed information about this product or go to our full range of publications.Wide flange beams are easy handling, transport, storing and installation.Tata Steel CE marked structural sections compliant with the EU Directive on Construction Products.Accommodates complex load combinations of universal bearing pile with tension or compression loads

The primary advantages of HP and UBP bearing piles are many. Pile length can be easily extended by splicing to suit ground conditions.Wide flange beam has trademarked new designations for use by the UK steel construction industry - UBP becomes UKBP.A range of sizes from 203 x 203 x 45kg/m up to 356 x 368 x 174kg/m.Excellent durability; numerous experiences for totally embedded piles showed a corrosion rate tending to zero
