drilled pile

in common construction discussions, we use the terms "drilled" and "driven" all the time. "Drilled" is used interchangeably with "auger-cast". "Driven" is used interchangeably with "timber pile" or "pre-cast pile"...everyone knows what you mean when you're talking with engineers and on the job site. And no one gets in a pissin contest over what we're gonna call the deep arse hole with rebar and concrete in it.

Well aware, it's how I earn a living.

Piles and shafts are very different in how they are constructed. A deep arse hole that you fill with rebar and concrete is a drilled shaft and not a pile. If you mix those up it could be a huge frick up.

This ain't close to being pissy, this is trying to make heads or tails of what dude was talking about.
