The cast in-situ pile is a widely used type of deep foundations which its execution in civil projects is increasing daily. The use of ordinary concrete in this type of piles causes technical and executive problems, a decrease in the compressive strength (CS) of concrete, and an increase in the permeability under the ground level. But use of the self-compacting concrete in the cast in-situ piles while increasing the CS of concrete ensures proper compaction, increase in the execution speed, and easy placing of concrete.
