Screw Piles

Custom Helical Pile Foundations

Engineered helical (screw) piles are deep foundation elements designed to transfer structural loads through weak or compressible soil layers into more stable strata below.

Manufactured from high-grade steel and featuring one or more helices welded to a central shaft, these piles are mechanically screwed into the ground using specialized hydraulic torque motors.

Key Benefits

  1. Rapid Installation: Minimal excavation—installation can be completed in hours, reducing site disturbance and environmental impact.
  2. Immediate Load Capacity: After reaching specified torque, piles can support design loads instantly, accelerating project timelines.
  3. Versatility: Suitable for new builds, underpinning, remote sites, and challenging soil conditions (permafrost, high groundwater).
  4. Adjustability: Height and load-bearing capacity can be fine-tuned on-site; remediation and load adjustments are straightforward.
  5. Certification: Provide engineer-stamped installation reports and stamped layout drawings for permit approval.

Applications

  1. Foundations for residential homes, RTM/mobile homes, and modular buildings
  2. Underpinning and remediation of failing foundations in heritage restorations
  3. Support for agricultural structures (silos, barns), solar panel racks, and utility poles
  4. Remote industrial camps and oil patch facilities where rapid mobilization is critical

Installation Process

  1. Site Survey & Layout: Coordinate layout drawings with suppliers; conduct on-site surveying with laser levels.
  2. Engineered Design: Engineer-certified spacing, helix size, and torque specifications based on soil reports.
  3. Pile Installation: Deploy hydraulic drive units to torque piles to target resistance values indicating geotechnical capacity.
  4. Cut & Cap: Trim piles to design elevation; weld pile caps or brackets as per structural requirements.
  5. Certification: Provide engineer-stamped installation reports and stamped layout drawings for permit approval.
