The Strength of Postech Screw Piles
Postech Screw Piles can support large amounts of weight by transferring it directly to the ground below the frost line, unlike concrete pads that sit on the surface. Whether installing new grain bins or silos, a properly designed and installed Postech Screw Pile system can easily support the structure. Installation is carried out by trained Postech experts, who have the necessary equipment and experience to install helical piles efficiently.
Stability Against Wind Shear Forces
Since helical piles are firmly anchored in the earth, they provide an excellent defense against wind. Shear forces from the wind are transferred deep into the ground, allowing the earth to help hold the silo or grain bin in place. This makes these farming structures much less susceptible to the forces of nature compared to those installed on concrete slabs.
Cost-Effective Solutions for Farmers
Postech Screw Piles are very cost-effective. Unlike concrete foundations that require extensive excavation, helical piles can be installed by one trained worker using a specially equipped excavator. This reduction in labor directly translates to lower costs and faster installation times. For more details, visit our installation process.
Flexibility in Farm Configuration
An additional advantage of using Postech Screw Piles instead of concrete is the ease of relocating structures. A grain bin or silo constructed on a concrete foundation cannot be moved without being destroyed. In contrast, structures built on helical piles can be disconnected and moved intact. The helical piles can be removed and reinstalled in the new location, making the entire structure movable with minimal effort. This flexibility allows farmers to reconfigure their farms as new technologies evolve. Read more about the benefits of Postech Screw Piles.
Environmental Benefits
Helical piles are environmentally friendly. In today's world, where environmental considerations are paramount, Postech Screw Piles offer a green alternative. They disturb the environment less than any other type of foundation and leave hardly a trace when removed, ensuring minimal environmental impact. For inquiries, contact us for more information.
