Choosing helical piles to support the foundation of your project can be the answer.

Engineered pilings are constructed with a hollow steel tube affixed with one or several helixes.

These helical plates allow for a more effective bearing load capacity when soil can be problematic.

During metal post installation, torque is monitored.

If the installation torque is unsatisfactory then extensions can be added to go deeper and provide greater support.

Unlike concrete footings, the screw-anchors can be loaded immediately after installation Minimal ground disturbance.

As the posts do not displace the soil during installation.

The ground in which they are put into is not disturbed leaving the soil more stable Load Capacity Verification.

During installation the torque is monitored and recorded.

This indicates the soil condition in which the pilings are installed and indicated how much weight the screw pile can hold Increase Load Capacity.

In the field if the required installation torque is not met, helical plates or piling extensions can be added.

Going deeper with extensions or adding helical plates can increase the torque to meet the engineering specifications No Frost Heaving.

As all metal posts are installed well below the frost line with the load bearing helical plate typically at the deepest point.

Screw piles are resistant to frost heaving No excavating.

Because the posts simply twist into the soil there is no requirement to dig or drill any holes.

This saves time and money The use of ground screws in fence construction has been a widely accepted practice for more than a decade, yet the use of ground screws for decks has not been as well embraced.

However, these innovative products offer significant advantages over conventional piles & posts or pad and post systems.

They have evolved considerably in recent years, with a wider array of types and widths.
