ABSTRACT:
A method for installing a composite timber and concrete piling system provides metallic tube that is partially filled with concrete. The unfilled portion of the metallic tube defines a splice member when the metallic tube is driven into a timber pile. The timber pile member is first driven into the earth at a selective position and at a selective orientation but a partial distance which leaves a small portion of the timber pile exposed above ground. The metallic tube is then placed on top of and aligned with the axis of the timber pile. The unfilled portion of the metallic tube forms a splice. The concrete filled metallic tube is forced downwardly until the unfilled portion of the tube is embedded into the exposed portion of the timber pile and wherein the concrete in the tube approaches the top of the timber pile. During driving, the concrete in the tube contacts the top of the timber pile.
