surface 14 of the soil 12 the diameter and thickness of a steel pile will vary according to the particular building or structure design a pilot hole 16 may be drilled into the soil 12 to facilitate driving of the pile 10 a bond breaker material 18 is applied to the pile 10 prior to driving of the pile into the soil 12 the bond breaker material 18 is preferably a plastic material such that marketed under the names permalon u00ae or canvex cb12wb both of which have good elastic qualities under subfreezing conditions preferably the bond breaker material 18 comes in six and eight foot wide rolls having ten to twelve mil thickness and is fastened to pile 10 with an approximately two inch wide tape the bond breaker material 18 is wrapped around the pile 10 in two layers and the first layer has a u00bd pipe circumference overlap it should be understood that the width of the bond breaker material 18 could vary and other products having similar good elastic qualities under subfreezing conditions could be substituted seams between adjacent wraps are preferably taped full length of the wrap and the lower end 19 of the bond breaker material 18 should also be taped in a thickness necessary to provide a sufficient clamping surface alternatively a layer of grease may be applied.
