Pile foundations are deep foundation structures used to support buildings or other structures by transferring their load to deeper, more stable soil layers. They consist of long, slender columns, usually made of concrete, steel, or timber, driven or drilled into the ground until they reach a strong layer of soil or rock.

Pile foundations are essential for construction on weak or unstable soil where shallow foundations would not be effective. They help prevent settling or shifting of the structure and are often used for high-rise buildings, bridges, and other heavy structures. Proper design and installation ensure stability and durability over time.
