Screw Piles
Screw Piles also known as Screw Anchors, Helical Screw Piles and Ground Anchors are a long established form of piling invented in England by Alexander Mitchell in 1833 for supporting lighthouse structures in tidal basins. Today screw anchors are widely used in medium piling applications such as home extensions, conservatories, elevated stadium seating, various building foundations, electricity pylons, street lighting, road signs, elevated walkways, solar farms, protective fencing plus many other uses. SEA Screw Pile system consists of one, two or three helical plates welded onto a central tubular shaft. The load bearing capacity of each anchor depends on three main factors: ground structure, helical plate and shaft dimension.
Advantage for using screw piles verses other piling techniques
Fast instalation, no cement requirement, thus no curing time requied
Less labour, less cost, no need of special transportation for delivery to site, no need of heavy plant for installation
Eco-friendly, less noise, less waste, reduces spoil removal from site (especially cost effective for applications on toxic ground)
Paticularly easy to install at sites with restricted access
Piles can be removed after use by simply unscrewing from the ground.
