Pre-engineered metal buildings demand uniform, predictable support at column lines and perimeter walls. PierTech helical piles deliver immediate capacity and reduce grading, spoils, and weather delays. Unlike poured concrete, which requires excavation and curing, helical piles install quickly and can be built on the same day.
Each pile is advanced to stable soil and torque-verified, ensuring reliable performance even in poor or variable conditions. Installation requires only small equipment, minimizing disturbance, cleanup, and site restoration.
PierTech offers brackets and caps engineered for metal building connections, creating seamless integration with the steel superstructure. Contractors gain faster timelines and predictable results, while owners benefit from a durable, low-maintenance foundation system.
From warehouses and distribution centers to agricultural shops and industrial facilities, PierTech helical piles provide a stronger, smarter, and more efficient solution than traditional concrete.
| Product | Product Description | Application Description |
|---|---|---|
| Helical Lead Section | Pipe section with one or more welded helical bearing plates | Typical lead section 2-7/8", 3-1/2" with a Cross-Lock Coupler, or a Hercules Pile 5', 7', or 10' long pipe, with a single Helix, double, or triple Helix, and Cross-Lock coupler. |
| Helical Extension Sections | Pipe section with Cross-Lock Couplings welded to each side | Typically requires 1 to 4 - 2-7/8", 3-1/2" Cross-Lock Extensions or a Hercules Pile Extension 5', 7', or 10' long for an overall length of 14' to 50' depth. Attaches to lead section. |
| New Construction Bracket | Steel plate welded to a Cross-Lock Coupling or Coupling for the Hercules Pile System | Typical New Construction cap sits on top of the helical extension section. |
| Helical Equipment Package | Hydraulic rotary motor and gearbox attached to a power source used to install the pile into the ground | The helical equipment package will normally be mounted to a skid steer or excavator, and the standard installation drive heads will range from 6,000 ft-lbs to 360,000 ft-lbs. A digital or analog torque monitor will be used to calculate the pile's capacity. |
