Project:
Dixie Anchoring System Helix Steel Piers were installed using portable hand-held equipment to support a new structural slab inside an existing school building with limited vertical clearance. South Coast Helix Foundations, Inc. installed twenty-nine (29) helix steel piers each carrying either 15,000 or 21,000 lb. loads. Each helix steel pier was a 1½" x 1½" rounded corner solid square steel shaft with a double lead section consisting of an 8" & 10" diameter bearing plates. These helix steel piers were advanced to depths of fifteen (15) and twenty (20) feet. The top attachments, for new construction (plate series), was then bolted to the top of the helix steel piers and will be cast into the concrete grade beams.
