Utility Tools for Secure Foundations

Our helical piles and pole base grillages enhance structural support and establish secure foundations for utility structures.

Helical Piles

Helical Piles

Helical piles facilitate immediate loading with high-capacity options up to 300 kip per mile. - Decreased installation time and costs - Minimal soil removal required - Immediate loading - Green alternative to concrete - Removable and reusable

Pole Base Grillages

Pole Base Grillages

Our pole base grillages offer the support you need to maintain sturdy foundations during construction. Comprised of a welded steel plate and hollow structural steel, grillages facilitate secure connections between helical piles, structure bases, and tower legs. - Built for use with 3.5” and 4.5” diameter helical piles - Operate in conjunction with micro piles in hard and rocky soils
