Foundation for buildings in the energy industry
Design and installation of pile foundations
in Kyiv, Kharkov, Dnipro, Odessa, Nikolaev, Lvov, Zaporozhye and other cities of Ukraine.
The light-frame house on screw piles is increasingly popular, because the construction technology of the light-frame house is quite simple to implement. In addition it does not require special planning. So the time and costs for this construction are significantly reduced.
Heavy foundation is energy-intensive. Ground screws are more profitable than concrete when they are used on a slope, in water-saturated and subsiding soil and also in winter.
Piles under the light-frame house can be screwed into any soil. You can choose any plot of land with almost any landscape. One of the main advantages of ground screws for light-frame houses is no need to dig a pit and use concrete.
Ground screws foundation for a lightweight building is a great option, because these screws can be easily attached to its frame.
The PILLAR company can help to make the project of the foundation of a light-frame house, to prepare drawings of the foundations for houses from a light-frame houses and to make calculations for this sort of a foundation.
One ground screw is installed in up to 15 minutes. You can start the construction of the building immediately after finishing with ground screws. Foundation of the house on the ground screws does not require shrinkage, because after screwing up the soil is compacted and as a result the soil is capable of supporting the weight of the house.
The possibility of mounting on sites with a complex landscape or on a slope, where the concrete foundation requires enormous labor and financial costs.
It is possible to install the foundation within several days. Involvement of complex construction equipment and excavation as concrete works are not required.
Galvanized piles are practically not corroded, which allows its use in water-saturated soils and even in reservoirs.
Installation of the ground screw foundation is carried out using a mode, in which there remains a minimum of construction waste at the end of the work.
Compared to strip foundations, the pouring of it in winter time requires additional costs bound on thermal insulation of concrete. The installation of ground screws can be done in the normal operating mode.
In order to get optimal solution for the construction of the foundation the customer must provide a geological survey of the site and provide a construction project. Considering these data experts make conclusions about the properties of the soil and the loads of the future construction.
Based on the data obtained our engineers prepare a calculation of the required number of screws and the distance between them, as well as the depth of it’s immersion. Depending on the collected loads for the foundation of the house, the optimal diameter and required length for ground screws are selected.
Screw foundations for low-rise buildings are installed in a short time. Depending on the complexity of the object, there are three options for screwing in: manual, electromechanical and hydraulic. After the ground screws have been installed at the required in design depth, the headstrap is strapped.
