Helical piers, also known as anchors, piles or screw piles, are deep foundation solutions used to secure new or repair existing foundations,a modern improvement to traditional cement footings. Each pier consists of an engineered steel post with screw-like helices. Helical pile is extendable base equipment which is made up of helical engineered metallic plates that are attached to a central steel shaft using a round or rectangular cross-section. The steel plate thickness, diameter, number, and helices operate are determined through the restricted or supported arrangement's minimal design life, the ecological rust, and geotechnical parameters, along with the design fill demands.
Helical piers, also known as helical 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. Helical piers are round or square, tubular or bar steel shafts with round helix plates welded to them.
Photovoltaic screw ground pile can reduce the cost of the foundation of the support system, shorten the installation time, and reduce the environmental impact of the ground photovoltaic support system. As a quick and cost-effective solution, it is applicable to all major solar photovoltaic, wind energy and construction industries. Its high load performance, stability, settlement resistance and pull-out resistance are the reasons for its rapid development.
Ground screw system is a modern foundation system,using the drilling machine to install which makes it as the most efficient and cost-saving footing solution.
It can be widely applied to different soil conditions.
Ground screw appliation:
Solar system;
Timer-fram construction;
Advertising and traffic systems;
Urban garden and landscape construction;
Flag poles and so on.
Screw anchor advantage:
Save time;
Easily assembled;
Save power;
Save money;
More environmental than Concrete Foundation method
