Micro pile

Seismic upgrades
and retrofit

Micro piles are one of the most versatile foundation augmentation systems available.  Micro piles can be installed adjacent to existing wall with horizontal clearances of less than 6 inches in some cases and with headroom as low as 9 feet or less for equipment, or even lower with hand equipment. 

Micro pile capacities are remarkable!  With a 38mm hollow bar, allowable compression capacities of more than 60,000 lbs and allowable tension and of 50,000 lbs can be achieved, depending on soil conditions.

NW Soil can help with micro pile design, access evaluations, and constructability review and comment.  Give us a call or email and let us help!
