Screw Piles

The piles are available in a range of lengths and capacities which allows piles to be installed in restricted headroom or space conditions to vertical capacities in excess of 400-500kN, and at designed rakes to take combinations of vertical and horizontal loadings.

The screw piles can be installed without the need for concrete or grout, which allows them to be used in rail or highway situations where limited time may be available to install them, and where simplicity to finished installation is essential.

Method is virtually vibration-free and no louder than the installing rig- commonly JCB or small loader type.
