This document provides an overview of a seminar on bored cast-in-situ piles. It discusses pile classification, general construction descriptions, workmanship requirements, load testing procedures, equipment used, and testing methods for concrete and aggregates. The conclusion states that bored cast-in-situ piling is favorable due to reduced waste and cost, the ability to cast piles to exact lengths, and capacity to bear and transfer heavy loads to the ground. Reinforcement is not always needed but adds stability and durability. Overall, bored cast-in-situ piling is preferable for bearing large loads as piles can be cast deep into the ground.

32. Conclusion:
Bored Cast in situ piling is favourable than other piling processes.
Because there is no waste of time and materials so it is economical and
can be cast into exact length. It can bear heavier load and transfer it to
the ground soil. Also the transportation cost is not high.
It is not necessary to reinforce the pile in normal cases or in places where
the pile is completely submerged in the soil. But for more stability and
durability of structure we use reinforcement. Over all, Bored cast in situ is
preferable for bearing huge amount of load as it can be cast deep inside
the ground.
