We are bidding a job in Labrador Canada. Twinning of a railway bridge.

The soils report speaks to "Parco Piles" as being used in the construction of the old bridge and recommends them in the construction of the new bridge.

I have never heard of a "Parco Pile" before.

There are a lot of boulders and cobbles in the soil, so I'm figuring some sort of aurgred foundation. (Down about 23 metres.)

Has anyone heard of "Parco Piles" before.

Tried google, but believe it or not, nothing comes up.
