Our foundation system plays an especially important role in nature conservation and preservation efforts alike. These include projects in restricted or remote areas such as [parks, protected areas](https://www.technometalpost.com/en-CA/projects/boardwalks-bridges/) , or even as simple as backyards! The ability to maneuver around plants and existing structures makes them an ideal choice for projects aimed at [preserving the natural environment](https://www.technometalpost.com/en-CA/cases/helical-pile-for-east-humber-trail-boardwalks-pedestrian-bridges-and-bat-boxes/) , while still meeting construction goals. Recently, a residential deck project showcased the benefits of using helical piles in a nature preservation initiative. The homeowner wanted to expand their living space and build a deck off their patio door; however, there was a 60-year-old tree growing in that very spot. Therefore, they decided to build the deck around the tree in order to preserve it. Instead of using traditional construction methods, they opted for helical piles to minimize environmental impact. This eliminated the need for digging, pouring, site disturbance, and added weight around the large root system. [The advantage of using helical piles](https://www.technometalpost.com/en-CA/helical-piles/) for this project was that the installation process avoided damaging the tree's roots and nearby vegetation. In the video below, we see how the installer maneuvers around a large root to properly install his pile. The specialized and compact installation equipment maintained noise to a minimum, which is always appreciated in a residential neighborhood! What’s more, the homeowner was pleased to know that her deck would remain stable during winter, thanks to the[green sleeve that glides along the piles,](https://www.technometalpost.com/en-CA/helical-piles/) preventing them from heaving during freeze/thaw periods. The final result was an aesthetic [deck](https://www.technometalpost.com/en-CA/projects/patios-decks-porches-screw-piles/) that not only displayed the tree's beauty but also highlighted sustainable construction practices. Should there be any need for future maintenance, it will be easy with a helical pile system in place. In addition, during construction, sufficient space was left between the wooden structure and the tree to allow for potential growth. This project illustrates a perfect example of why helical piles are an excellent choice for nature-focused projects. Their versatility makes them a perfect solution for projects that prioritize the preservation of natural spaces.
