What is the maximum load that a pile can support?

The load-bearing capacity of a Techno Metal Post cannot simply be guessed - it must be calculated, planned for and adapted to each project. There are two key elements involved: the model of the pile and the installation depth.

1. The diameter and strength of the pile

Our engineers have created a pile selection table to help you choose the appropriate pile model, based on the loads being supported. This process ensures that each pile is properly proportioned to the project's specific requirements.

2. Installation depth and load-bearing capacity of the soil

Each pile is installed by one of our certified professionals, in accordance with the soil’s properties. Our installers follow a correlation chart to confirm that the pile's load-bearing capacity is appropriate for the type of soil encountered.

An engineered-based system

At Techno Metal Post, every project is carefully assessed by our engineering department to guarantee a foundation solution tailored to your needs.

The quantity and installation depth of the piles required are predetermined for each type of project, then validated by on-site load tests.

Our piles are designed to adapt to all types of soil, guaranteeing reliable foundations in even the most challenging conditions.

For example: a terrace project using the Techno Metal Post P2 model (with a 60 mm diameter), each post can support up to 5 tons.
