A Helical Anchor is also known as a Helix Anchor, Screw Anchor, or Helical Pile is extendable base equipment which is made up of helical engineering 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.

What are Helical Anchors?

A helical anchor is a deep foundation solution which is used in situations when standard solutions cannot be applied to your foundation project. Situations where a foundation may be exposed to moisture for a longer period of time or where the soil’s condition is not normal for use, in such a situation a deep foundation solution like a Helical anchor is required.

What is the purpose of Helical Anchors?
The main purpose of a helical anchor is to transfer the structural load to the soil. There are various other applications also like tension, compression, and lateral load where helical anchors are used.
 
When are Helical Anchors used?
Helical anchors can be used to secure new foundations or repair existing ones. They’re used for lighthouses, roads, railroads, tele-communication and in a lot of different businesses that need rapid installation or structure near to present constructions. Evidence, maintaining structures, other common places make use of because they are appropriate for compression in addition to tensile loads.
We have the technology that enables us to produce the strongest Helical Anchors in the industry. We have patented inertia welding technology that produces the strongest couplers.
 Helical Anchors system used to re-establish new foundations or restore present ones. 

What are the benefits of Helical Anchors?
There are various benefits of using a helical anchor. Some of them are as bellow…

• Easy to install and remove in any weather condition.
• Installs in limited access areas.
• Reduces carbon footprints.
• No excavation or spoils to remove.
• Immediate proof tasting and loading.
• No concrete tricks or grout pumps needed.
• Helps to reduce foundation costs.
• It does not require excess soil.
• The installation process is very clean and tidy as there are no spoils left after installation.

How To Install Helical Anchors?
Helical anchors are installed before pouring the foundation or the soil foundation has been damaged
Helical anchors are screwed into the soil and depending upon the location they are attached to the pre-existing foundation with brackets or screws. After installation of helical anchors the foundation is safe and is ready to combat any future damage due to compression and tension.

Advantages of Helical Anchor

• Typical production rate of 30 to 40 per day for installing and testing
• No holes required for drilling
• Cuts labor and equipment costs
• Can save 30% while obtaining high anchor-load capacities
