Jute fiber reinforced based plastic composites are now widely used in the packaging, automotive industries, electronics, household items, agriculture, cottage industries, the paper and pulp industries, aircraft industries, building construction, industrial buildings, roofing of residential house and commercial buildings, manufacturing and civil engineering applications as well because of their good advantages.
Few decades, jute fibers have been used in different engineering polymers because of their excellent compatibility over other materials and it has been opened new potential applications [5].
The jute fiber woven composites can be potentially used in military applications, civil engineering application, automotive industries etc.

EN 1991-1-7:2006 focuses on assessing the sudden removal of individual vertical load-bearing members, such as columns or walls; ASCE 76-23 uses notional damage volumes depending on the risk of the structure and requires the engineer to identify critical locations; UFC 4-023-03 emphasises alternate load paths for specified column and wall removal scenarios and requires enhanced local resistance for all perimeter first-story columns or walls.

As a common precast, prestressed pipe pile is generally composed of prefabricated factory manufacture, taking into account the transportation requirements, single pile usually 8-12m, can also according to the specific requirements of the engineering change of length of pile.
Through pipe low, high strain dynamic testing (evaluation of the integrity of pile and the ultimate bearing capacity of single pile calculation), pile static test and pile uplift test and other concrete tests; for the accidental pile in construction, it can be determined the relevant inspection items according to the actual engineering situation.
More effective researches should be done on the PHC pile deformation, pile soil interaction between pile, material properties, mechanical properties, bending and so on, which will bring greater economic benefits in specific engineering practice with period.
