Deep Foundation Applications Round Helical Piles
Round Shaft Piers are used in compression applications.
Helical piles have significant load bearing capacity and are used in both compression (downward) and tension (uplift) applications. In many cases, round shaft helical piers will be used in compression applications.
Advantages:
- A better conventional solid steel extra high strength helical pile.
- All-weather installation.
- Installs quickly without generating spoils.
- Helical screw piles available with single, double and triple helix blades.
- Lead sections and extensions can be configured to achieve design depth and capacity.
- Minimal excavation required around foundation area.
- Cost-effective – gets a structure back on solid ground.
- Permanent solution – prevents further vertical movement.
