Mechanics / Mech Engineering / pile driving
English term or phrase: or raked
Piling operations fall into two categories: driving load-bearing piles, which may be driven vertically ///or raked;/// and, driving sheet piles. Piles may be of steel, concrete, timber or any combination of the three. Piling equipment can vary from a simple air-operated hand-held hammer to a large complex rig.

From a document detailing piling operations.

Thanks for your help.
