What Are Screw Piles?

Screw piles are steel shafts equipped with helical flights (helix or helices) designed to penetrate the ground while displacing the soil. These piles can be adapted to suit various ground conditions, making them suitable for projects of different scales. The helical flights ensure a stable foundation by anchoring the pile securely into the soil without the need for augering or major excavation.

Screw piles are typically installed using standard tracked or wheeled excavators equipped with a torque motor attachment. This allows for monitoring of the torque during the installation process, ensuring that the pile reaches the required design depth and load-bearing capacity.

How Screw Piles Are Installed

The installation of helical screw piles involves several crucial steps:

  1. Torque Monitoring: As the pile is advanced into the soil, the torque motor attached to the excavator monitors the resistance of the ground, ensuring that the pile is penetrating to the correct depth.
  2. Connecting Steel Sections: Depending on the project’s requirements, additional sections of steel are bolted together to reach the total pile depth. This flexibility allows us to handle varying site conditions and foundation needs.
  3. Final Torque Reading: A final torque measurement is taken over the last metre of advancement to confirm that the pile has reached the correct depth and can bear the required load. This step is critical in ensuring that the foundation is stable and secure.

Benefits of Screw Piling

Screw piling offers numerous advantages, including:

  • Minimal soil disturbance: Unlike traditional methods, screw piling does not require extensive excavation, reducing the environmental impact.
  • Speed and efficiency: Installation is quick, which helps to reduce project timelines and costs.
  • Versatility: Screw piles can be used in various soil types and for different project sizes, from small residential extensions to large commercial buildings.
  • Durability: The steel construction and precise installation method ensure that the foundation will remain strong for many years to come.
