Helical Piles

At Techno Metal Post, we combine engineering expertise with cutting-edge technology. Our helical pile foundations are made from Hollow Structural Steel (HSS), making them compliant with ASTM A500 grade C. They are designed, fabricated, tested, and installed in compliance with Canadian, European, and U.S. building codes. To install them, our trained and certified professionals use specialized hydraulic machines to screw them into the ground until a specific torque and depth is reached. This allows the installers to determine the load-bearing capacity for the structure.

In addition, Techno Metal Post’s fully welded couplings, which connect the piles, ranked above others when compared to bolted couplings in similar products. This delivers maximum strength, rigidity, and enhanced buckling resistance.

We offer a range of helical pile and blade sizes to meet various structural support requirements and specific soil conditions. Our engineering team also provides expert advice and support to determine the appropriate size for each project.

We have designed and created a series of specialized hydraulic equipment, exclusively for the installation of helical pile foundations. A single machine compact in size, allows the crew to complete installations for even the toughest foundations and tightest spots. It is less disruptive to surrounding areas compared to traditional methods, as it does not require excavation, the use of heavy machines, or concrete pouring. Another added benefit is the minimal impact on your lawn and surrounding landscape, leaving behind only a small footprint. Both customers and installers alike are highly satisfied with the ability to start the construction on their project within a short period of time, even as little as within the same day. In the end, your project was efficient, clean and cost-effective.

During the installation process, our exclusive polyethylene green sleeve is placed on the pile to safeguard it against ground movement. In situations where there are freeze/thaw cycles or swelling clay, the sleeve is designed to glide along the pile shaft, adapting to any ground movements. Techno Metal Post’s helical pile foundation remains secure, thereby guaranteeing the stability of the entire structure.

To ensure the stability and security of any given structure, pile caps/support plates are affixed to the top of each pile. Techno Metal Post offers a range of support plate models and sizes to accommodate various dimensions or materials. Additionally, Techno Metal Post manufactures different helical pile sizes to suit different project requirements. Smaller piles are designed for lighter projects, such as decks and verandas, and larger ones for heavier loads and purposes, such as cottages, garages, and buildings.
