Screw Piling
Screw piles, which can also be known as screw anchors, helical piles and helical anchors are a type of steel piling. The role of these piles is to anchor the ground for construction, allowing for a deep and solid foundation to be built upon. Similar to bored piling, it is just used in different conditions and has a different structure. Residential properties, commercial buildings, bridges, warehouses and factories all need to be built upon a solid foundation, which is where screw piling comes in. The shaft of the screw piles transfers a load of the structure onto the screw rather than having it put pressure onto the ground, creating a more stable foundation. They are made of circular steel sections and are actually cut into the soil, which makes them adaptable to the ground that they are installed into. Once they are installed into the ground, the space surrounding the pile is filled with concrete which keeps it in place. Being installed correctly is important as they carry the weight of the structure upon them. Structures created by methods such as screw piling and bored piling ensure the safety and the stability of the structure that they carry for many, many years to come, normally for the entire lifespan of the structure or building.
