Foundation on screw piles for road infrastructure: from traffic lights to the bridge
A typical situation is when unique military developments make a real revolution in the “peaceful” industry. Like many technological solutions, screw piles migrated into civil engineering from the so-called defense industry and got accustomed due to their economic advantage and ease of use.
Screw foundations have not only earned a reputation in the construction market of suburban real estate and industrial buildings. But they also legally occupied their niche in the road-building industry, as a universal supporting structure.
They are mounted:
-
in any climatic conditions
-
without using additional construction equipment
-
without drilling a well
-
at any angle
-
in any soil except rocks
-
all season
-
easy to dismantle and reuse
