Helical Pile

BRIEF CASE FACTS

Client:

G.C.:

EllisDon Corporation

Geotechnical:

Coffey

Structural:

Stantec

Piles:

588 Chance Helical Piles

Loadings:

Compression Load: 890kN (200 kips)
Tension Load: 712kN (160 kips)

Challenges:

Woodstock General Hospital

Woodstock, ON, Canada

A proposed hospital in Woodstock, Ontario was to be constructed and required the foundation to resist compression, tension and lateral loads during a seismic event. The design team, including EBS, evaluated the loading and soils information and determined that helical piles were the most cost efficient option.

Compression Load: 890kN (200 kips)
Tension Load: 712kN (160 kips)
Depth: 4.6 to 9 metres
Total Number of Helical Piles: 588
