Helical Anchors
- Limited Access
- High Production Capabilities (500+ kips)
- New Construction or Retrofit
- Instant Load Capacity
Helical Anchors are manufactured foundation elements comprised of a central shaft and one or more helical bearing plates located on the shaft with its axis positioned parallel to the shafts length. A helical anchor is installed by rotating its shaft into the ground by applying torque. Helical plates are spaced typically 3 times its diameter. When the lead helix (lower helix) penetrates the earth, it advances when friction develops along the surface of the helical plate and soil interface.
