The advantages of U-shaped piles are multiple:
- wide range of sections forming several series with various geometrical characteristics, enabling the choice of technically and economically optimised sections for each specific project
- combination of great wave depth and high flange thickness leading to excellent statical properties
- symmetrical form of single elements resulting in great aptitude for re-use
- possibility of assembling and fixing piles into pairs at the mill providing better installation quality and performance
