Helical Piles/Screw Pile
Helical piers, also known as anchors, piles or screw piles, are deep foundation solutions used to secure new or repair existing foundations. Due to their design and ease to install, they are most commonly used whenever soil conditions prevent standard foundation solutions. Instead of requiring large excavation work, they thread into the ground. This minimizes installation time, requires little soil disturbance, and most importantly transfers the weight of the structure to load bearing soil.
Helical piles are used for:
- New Construction – These helical anchors are installed prior to construction to prevent downward settlement before it starts.
- Basement wall,retaining wall, and shore tie backs
- Porches – Helicals offer a variety of uses and are ideal in lightweight
- Wall Tie Backs – Commonly used in the repair of retaining walls and basement walls, helical tiebacks offer a clean easy installation.
