Wikipedia
Pile driver
A pile driver is a device used to drive piles (poles) into soil to provide foundation support for buildings or other structures. The term is also used in reference to members of the construction crew that work with pile-driving rigs. One type of pile driver uses a weight placed between guides so that it can slide vertically. It is placed above a pile (pole). The weight is raised, which may involve the use of hydraulics, steam, diesel, or manual labour. When the weight reaches its highest point it is released, and hits the pile, driving it into the ground.

Pile drivers work by lifting a heavy weight and dropping it onto the pile, driving it into the ground through the application of force or vibrations.
