Square Shaft Solutions

Confident Design

Expert product design and extensive testing ensures that CHANCE square shaft helical piles will perform as expected. A wide range of building code approved products are available to give you confidence that products will perform as promised.

HeliCAP helical capacity design software is an online tool for confident helical engineering; allowing engineers to design – and not over-design – deep foundations based on soil conditions and desired capacity. A clear correlation between torque values and capacity provides accurate loading values.

The CHANCE Technical Design Manual is an excellent resource which includes product ratings, design examples, and best practices.

Efficient Installation

No drilling, curing or delays in loading. Helical Piles provide foundation solutions that can be installed and loaded on the same day.

The relatively large cross-sectional area of the CHANCE square shaft helical pile supports high axial loads, is strong enough to resist the torque required for installation and resist buckling once the load is transferred to the pile.

Square shaft piles can be ordered with the patented ROCK-IT™ lead section; designed to penetrate rocky or permafrost conditions without pre-drilling.

Ideal Solution

Although many deep foundation solutions exist in the market today, CHANCE square shaft piles are the best solution for many applications and soil conditions. The square central shaft provides the highest torque correlation, the lowest cost per kip at load ranges of 50 kip or less, and the best corrosion protection of any helical pile type.
