What is a "Helical Pier?".
Helical Piers are also commonly referred to as Helical Piles, Helical Anchors, or Screw Piles. Whatever name you choose, a helical pile is a manufactured steel shaft with rounded helical bearing plates that is drilled into the soil until achieving ultimate capacity in competent load bearing stratum.
If you are looking for a foundation solution in areas with high water table, potential for swelling or collapse of soils, low bearing capacity or low shear strength of soils, soils susceptible to freeze / thaw cycles, or high uplift demands then S&B Helical can help!
