Abstract: A foundation pile includes a tubular wall, a top cap covering a top end of the tubular wall, a partition plate disposed transversely in the tubular wall below the top cap and dividing an inner space of the tubular wall into upper and lower spaces, two opposite fixing holes extending radially through the tubular wall and communicated with the upper space, and a plurality of pressure release holes extending radially through the tubular wall and communicated with the lower space. The partition plate prevents concrete slurry from flowing into the upper space. The pressure release holes allow the concrete to consolidate therein and to thereby increase transverse binding forces with the foundation pile. A method of installing the foundation pile is also disclosed.
