Pre-stressed Concrete Piles
Silica Sandport Inc., through its sister company, Pile Pro Inc., produces pre-stressed pre-cast concrete piles of varying lengths, sizes and strengths depending on the requirements of the job, for the foundation of bridges, buildings and wharves, etc.
Pre-stressed concrete piles are part of the sustainable and transformational future of Guyana as they:
- Can withstand high-pressure loads of several hundred tons;
- Can be produced in varying sizes, shapes and lengths depending on application;
- Are cost-effective, and have faster foundation time; and
- Are resistant to biological and chemical action.
Why Pile Pro?
- Pile Pro Inc. is strategically located next to its sister company Silica Sandport Inc. which allows for ready access to Washed and Graded Sand. Not only is washed sand 99.7% pure Silica, but through utilizing Coarse and Very Coarse Sand (0.5mm to 2mm), the strength of the piles can be further augmented.
- Pile Pro Inc. is also closely located to the privately owned port of Silica Sandport Inc. along the Demerara River, that not only facilitates easy access to raw materials such as cement and aggregates, but that enables the transportation of Pre-stressed Concrete piles via river.
- The company has the capacity to produce 14, 16 and 18-inch (350, 400 and 450mm) Square Piles ranging in length from 30 to 100
