THE USE OF CENTER PIPES IN PRECAST CONCRETE PILES (1980)

A center pipe for placement in a precast concrete pile usually consists of small diameter 40mm steel tubing cast concentrically in the pile. Sometimes for special testing such as telltale instrumentation in combination with inclinometer measurements, larger diammeter center pipes are used.
