English term or phrase: driving cast in situ piles
DRIVING CAST IN SITU PILES

n WARNING
When the machine is equipped for cast in situ there is much more weight in the leader and therefore the capacity is lower than with pre?fab piles. Consult the capacity table and know your limits.

Driving a steel tube into the ground produces cast in situ piles. Steel reinforcement cage is placed inside the tube and concrete is poured in. The tube is equipped with a tube head that makes it easier to pour in the concrete. After casting the concrete the tube is extracted and reuse

agree  Steffen Walter: Das "driving" in der Frage bezog sich wohl eher auf "driving a steel tube into the ground" (Einbringen eines Stahlrohres in den Baugrund). Die "cast in situ piles" sind natürlich Ortbetonpfähle.
