Advantages of Engineered Screwpiles
Save Valuable Time
-
Engineered Screwpiles are four times faster than drilled piers, caissons, and driven piles. With multiple machines, reduce your installation time even further.
-
Because our machines easily access difficult sites and require far less space during installation than other methods, the rest of the site can be working at the same time.
-
Our Screwpiles work in virtually any weather. Your site keeps working while others are having a “snow day.”
Control Cost & Save Money
-
All the costs for our Engineered Screwpiles are presented up-front. Prices won’t change after the job is completed. You won’t experience “sticker shock” over post completion charges for extra length, casing or rock.
-
Because of their design and installation process, Engineered Screwpiles will always save you money over other deep foundation systems.
Proven Reliability
-
Alpine’s Engineered Screwpiles are load tested for verified performance you can rely on.
-
Our patent pending torque monitoring system ensures consistency during installation.
-
Throughout the process, data and charting output is provided
for engineer’s verification and review.
Simple Change-Over
-
Pre-engineered details/drawings make change-over a snap.
-
No problem! Alpine can engineer a screwpile system to directly replace your current caisson. Our engineers will work with local building officials for approval to use engineered screwpiles as alternates.
-
All this is done usually without any effort required by the customer. All we need is a set of plans with load information and a soils report. Most caissons to screwpiles conversions are done in a 2-day runaround.
-
Lateral testing, axial testing and tension testing are provided on a yearly basis.
