I can't think of a better use case to show how versatile helical piles are!
What happens here
After both helical piles are successfully driven to their specified depths and torque values, a wooden structural post is secured to the top of each helical pile using specialized hardware. The video shows the final installed helical piles with their respective posts, providing a solid and level foundation for the new roof structure to be built upon the existing deck framing. The surrounding deck structure indicates that this method provides a stable and efficient solution even in complex construction environments.
Goal: Connect structural posts to the installed helical piles and confirm stability.
Tools and materials
- Fasteners/Hardware — Securing the post to the adapter
- Helical Pile Top Plate/Adapter — Connecting the wooden post to the helical pile
- Wooden Structural Post — Supporting the new roof structure
