Our company was recently awarded the task of providing foundation support to a residence on Fort Myers Beach. Following the damage and devastation caused by Hurricane Ian, our team has had the opportunity to help rebuild the area and serve the community by providing specialized support solutions to residential and commercial structures.
As flooding and uplift were of high concern in securing the proposed home addition, helical piles were chosen as the appropriate method to provide support for the new structure. The use of helical anchors would mitigate risk from those concerns and provide a stable foundation in which to build from.
Utilizing our specialized equipment, our team installed 51 helical piles to a depth of 14 feet. We achieved a 16-ton ultimate load on the installed piles, which will provide the needed support for the coming home addition.
Helical Piles shall consist of the following components:
RS2875.217 10” x 12” x 14” 84″ L Galvanized Round Shaft Lead Section
RS2875.217 84” L Galvanized Round Shaft Extensions
Galvanized Termination Caps
