What is satellite piling?

Satellite piling is a construction technique used to support structures by driving piles into the ground in a pattern that provides stability and load-bearing capacity. This method typically involves the installation of additional piles around a central pile, forming a "satellite" arrangement that distributes weight more evenly and enhances resistance to settlement. It is particularly useful in challenging soil conditions or for structures requiring significant vertical loads. The technique can improve the overall integrity and longevity of foundations in various engineering projects.
