  These helical piles are garbage. Too expensive.. I say this is the same as ICF. Waste of money. Only difference between this and sono tube's is a day tops. And once i saw they had that girl as there spokesperson. I know it was a scam..

  Wouldn’t frozen ground give false torque readings?

• 
  @goliathtechutah7712 ай бұрын

  If we didn’t install past the frost depth it definitely could. That is one of the reasons we are required to be below frost depth. Additionally, the KT factor is the factor in which the skin friction has against the pile. Part of the calculation to determine the load the pile can hold reduces the torque achieved by the surface area that could be adding resistance. Through this calculation we have a load that is based primarily by the torque against the helix at the end of the shaft.

  Why not just put the rebar heads on straight so you don't have to trim them? aren't you drilling the hole for it anyways?

  I was all excited about using helical piles on an upcoming residential build - until I realized they have a finite lifespan of 75-100 years. That might sound like a non-issue to most, but I have a hard time as a builder committing to a home that will fall apart on cue. Its almost like planned obsolescence. I live in a town with old school buildings that are 100 years old that are being converted to apartments. All the work is internal remodeling. The structure is very stout and strong and should last another 100 years. I envy that.

• 
  @goliathtechutah7717 ай бұрын

  It isn’t that they have a lifespan of 100 years, it is 100 years before the galvanization starts breaking down at all in severe habitats.

• 
  @Robshamsterteam9 ай бұрын

  My concern would be what happens to the steel after 50 years or 75 years I mean, obviously I noticed that it’s galvanized. What does that steel look like structurally after that time frame and how does that translate if there’s a failure with that much weight above it that’s no longer giving it the support that it needs essentially you put all the way onto these peers, so if there’s a failure in several peers in one area may because of water buildup, what’s the potential damage?

• 
  @goliathtechutah7719 ай бұрын

  The piles are all loaded with a safety factor of 2. We work closely with the engineers to make sure the pile will be able to hold a minimum of 2 times the requirements. The galvanization on our piles conform to ASTMA123 which is rated for 72-73 years of life even in the most corrosive atmosphere.

  I'm a builder in Central Texas, and in this part of the country we have the same concerns with soil movement due to drought conditions as builders in Northern climates do with the freeze-thaw cycle. Building slab-on-grade foundations resting on piles eliminates the concerns of soil shrinkage due to drought conditions. It also eliminates the need to water your foundation during dry periods which is often problematic as during drought conditions water restrictions are also in place. I've experimented with building several foundations with steel piers and I suspect will begin to see a great deal more of it in the future. Thanks for your video it's a great explanation for how this process works and how it can be a substitution for digging shallow footings.

  You dig additional piles next to it per the calculations ( bearing load) and create a larger pile cap to support it. On a commercial scale, this is done when the water table is close to the surface. Basically your building a bridge to support the load. 😊
