New Construction Helical Piers
New construction helical piers are used to construct new home footings, deck support, home additions, and any structure that doesn’t have suitable soil to support the structure. A helical pier is screwed in the ground to the proper torque, and a new construction top plate is installed on top of all helical piers installed to ensure a strong foundation.
Helical Pier with Underpinning Bracket
The helical pier concept is founded on the principle of turning a screw anchor (helical) into stable subsoil until the torque applied indicates the necessary load has been achieved. Then an adjustable bracket is attached to the foundation's base connecting the helical with the foundation. At this point, the residential or commercial structure's weight is shifted to the spiral, prohibiting the structure from shifting.
Helical Slab Piers
Helical slab piers stabilize damaged or uneven floors such as sinking garages, slabs, and patios.
Auger or Drill Piers
Auger or Drill Piers are holes drilled into the ground to a sufficient depth creating a hole to allow for the concrete to support new construction footings and support deck, patio, garage, slabs, and sidewalks.
What is an Auger/Drill Pier?
It is a drilled hole constructed by placing fluid concrete in to support the foundation of a structure. Depending on the engineered parameters, steel can be installed in the excavation, if desired, before placing concrete. We can install Auger/Drill Piers from 12”-48” wide.
Auger/Drill Piers not only apply to support foundations but can also be used for:
-
Garages
-
Light poles
-
Parking lots
-
Patio
-
Power poles
-
Sidewalks
-
Signs
-
Slabs
-
Support decks
-
Windmills
