When it comes to strong, durable and dependable foundation systems, Bored Piers remain
one of the most trusted and widely used methods in modern construction. Whether it’s

Bored Piers (also known as bored piles) are deep foundation elements created by drilling a
cylindrical hole into the ground and filling it with steel reinforcement and concrete. This
method provides exceptional strength for structures that require deep anchoring or are built
on challenging soil profiles.
Bored piers are commonly used for:
Their ability to transfer heavy loads deep into stable strata makes bored piers ideal for
coastal, clay, sandy or reactive soil conditions common across the East Coast of Australia.
The popularity of bored piers in the construction industry comes down to a few key advantages:
Bored piers can support heavy vertical loads, making them ideal for large buildings, industrial structures and high-rise developments.
Unlike driven piles, bored piers cause minimal disturbance, allowing work in built-up areas without impacting neighbouring structures.
From soft soils to rock, bored piers can be engineered to suit varying geological conditions across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria.
A properly installed bored pier foundation provides decades of dependable performance, offering a secure base even in challenging environments.
