Is it possible to install helical piles in rocky soil conditions?

Our installation equipment can screw piles through soil containing moderate sized rocks. Our machines generate the appropriate torque for the pile to move these rocks. If necessary, the functions of the telescopic and mobile mast will be used to "steer" the pile around the rock during installation. In the case of shallow rock layers or larger rocks, the installer may propose to anchor the pile with suitable fasteners or simply leave it on the rock if it is below frost depth. In rare cases, some terrains are too rocky to install helical piles and another type of foundation will have to be considered.
