Subsoil Evaluation
Geotechnical survey assesses soil composition, load-bearing capacity, layer structure, and corrosion potential to ensure optimal foundation design.
INSTALLATION
Machinery, matched to the ground
Our own crew and machines turn the piles into the ground and get you building fast — the structure is set the same day.
The field log / 01—05
Built in five moves.
Every installation is measured, verified, and ready for the next trade the same day. Follow the work from first soil reading to final torque record.

SET THE STRATEGY02 / 05
Foundation Planning
Using soil data, load specifications, and structural analysis, we select the appropriate groundscrew type and exact quantity needed.
03
PROVE THE LOAD03 / 05
Load-Bearing Capacity Test
Tension-compression tests validate the structural design and determine the minimum installation torque required on site.

Installation & Documentation
Skilled operators install with electric or hydraulic drivers. Torque at each position is recorded and loads can be placed immediately.

Dismantling Option
For temporary projects, groundscrews can be unscrewed, reused if undamaged, or sustainably recycled. Site restoration stays simple.
Machinery & soil
Matched to the ground
Foundation performance depends as much on the installation rig as on the pile. We size the rotary drive head to the torque demand of the site's soil profile and mount it on a carrier. Design starts with the geotechnical report, or with a verification pile where no report exists. Carrier, drive head and helix diameter are then selected as per the terrain.
| Soil condition | Carrier machine | Drive head | Pile approach |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soft clay, silt | Mini excavator, 1.5–3 t | Low-torque | Larger helix, deeper embedment |
| Firm clay, sandy soil | Excavator, 5–8 t | Medium-torque | Single or double helix |
| Dense sand, gravel | Excavator, 13–20 t | High-torque | Reduced helix diameter |
| Murum, weathered rock | Excavator, 20 t and above | High-torque | Rock helix, pre-drill where needed |
| Filled or made-up ground | Excavator, 8–13 t | Medium-torque | Extendable pile through the fill |
| Restricted access, indoors | Skid-steer or handheld unit | Low-torque | Short coupled sections |
