Which Type of Cement is used for Pile Foundation?

Any type of cement can be used as long as the design and durability requirements of the concrete used to construct the pile are met. For instance, if the sulfate attack is expected, it is desirable to select sulfate resistance cement because it produces concrete that withstand sulfate attack. As a result, the produced concrete would durable.

The ACI code 318-18 provides the design and durability requirements of concrete.

Basically, in the pile foundation, we use M20 to M40 concrete grade.

Pile foundation should have higher cover to protect deterioration from the surrounding soil.

Various type of pile has various specification, and as per specification, we should provide a concrete grade.

Concrete grade and steel grade and steel arrangement are totally depend on design philosophy.

We can also use various types of cement-like super sulfate cement, pozzolanic cement, sulfate resisting cement, other special kinds of cement, maybe use.
