The PierTech® Round Shaft Helical Pier
We Recommend Round Shaft In Compression
In applications where Compression is the primary consideration we recommend the PierTech Round Shaft Helical Pier. In Compression our round shaft helical has several advantages over the typical square shaft helical anchor.
Round Shaft Advantages:
- Superior Lateral Stability
- Greater Section Modulus Strength to resist Twisting and Deflection
- Patented Cross- Bolt Connection
- Greater Load Capacities
The Helical Pier consists of:
- A round hollow shaft 2 7/8” thru 12 ¾” O.D. typical.
- Circular tapered plates (helices) are welded to the center of the shaft.
- Helix diameters can range between 6” – 48” with a thickness of 3/8” – 1”.
- Helix pitch will range from 3” – 6”.
The PierTech® Square Shaft Helical Anchor
We Recommend Square Shaft In Tension
In applications where tension is the primary consideration we recommend the Pier Tech Square Shaft Helical Anchor. The Pier Tech Square Shaft Helical Anchor has several advantages over the typical square shaft helical anchor.
Square Shaft Advantages:
- Greater Yield and Tensile Strength
- Patented Cross- Bolt Connection
- Increased Safety Factor
- Higher Torque Capacity
The Helical Anchor consists of:
- A square solid shaft 1 ¼” thru 2” O.D typical.
- Circular tapered plates (helices) are welded to the center of the shaft.
- Helix diameters can range between 6” – 48” with a thickness of 3/8” – 1”.
- Helix pitch will range from 3” – 6”
