Uses For Galvanized Helical Piers
- To provide support for structures built on soil that is not capably of holding the weight of a structure
- Used to create a base for construction of structures on poor soil
Installation procedure
- The footing is exposed in areas that piers are going to be installed typically a 4’x4’ excavation is required
- The footing is preped to proved a good seat for the foundation bracket
- The only cast bracket (no weld put cast in a mold from molten steel) is installed under the footing
- The galvanized helical pier is driven through poor soil to load bearing strata
- The bracket is bolted to the pier and the structure is supported and in some cases returned to a more level position
Advantages
- Pier is “proofed” as it is driven using pressure reading and a mathematical formula we know how much the pier will hold
- No cure time that you have with concrete poured piers
- Quick and minimally disruptive installation
- Life of the structure warranties
