摘要: An apparatus and method of assisting the driving a hollow pile into soil by electro-osmosis in which electrical direct current is directed downwardly through inside pile, out bottom up outside whereby water on moves thereby making easier to drive soil. The includes insulating an electrically conductive preferably with non-conductor placing pile. circuit having d-c power source, anode cathode provided placed communication formed between When supplied circuit, will move down adjacent In addition, after has been driven, flow may be reversed for reducing content increasing load bearing strength
