Understanding how load capacity works in screw piling and why it is verified differently to concrete methods

Load capacity in screw piling is achieved, calculated, and verified in a fundamentally different way to concrete piling methods, and understanding those differences is important context for anyone commissioning or managing a screw piling project. The helical plates bearing against the surrounding soil, the torque to capacity relationship that allows real time verification during installation, and the influence of ground conditions on the reliability of that relationship all need to be understood clearly before pile capacity is relied upon as the basis for a structural foundation design. We work closely with structural engineers to make sure the capacity assessment is right for every project, and for clients without a structural engineer our in house design team can manage the full capacity assessment and pile design from the ground investigation data upwards.
