Increasing Soil Bearing Capacity

Sensitive soils, such as soft clay and loose sand, are prone to settlement or shear failure when subjected to loads. The installation of micro piles enhances the bearing capacity of these weak soils by transferring loads to more stable, load-bearing strata. Micro piles offer a versatile solution with numerous modern applications. They are used extensively in both commercial and residential construction, including helical pile systems, for a variety of purposes. These piling systems are suitable for establishing new foundations or repairing existing ones. Micro piles are particularly effective for supporting additions, decks, and gazebo footings, especially in situations where foundation construction has tight access constraints. Their maneuverable installation equipment and low mobilization costs make them an excellent choice for foundation construction in limited-access areas.
