Take a look at our Top 5 Dialogues of 2021
1) Micropiles Made Simple
Our March 2021 DuroTerra Dialogue discusses how cost-effective Ductile Iron Piles can often offer a faster, simpler, and safer approach on micropile projects to address sites with vibration concerns, overhead clearance restrictions, and challenging site conditions. View the conversation and project highlights here.
2) Lower Risk Helical Pile Alternatives
Our February 2021 DuroTerra Dialogue discusses how Ductile Iron Piles have become a go-to alternative for helical pile projects to provide a reliable, higher-capacity alternative for new construction, building additions, and interior renovations. View the conversation here.
3) In a Tight Spot? The Right Solution for Low Overhead Clearance
In a tight spot? Think Fast. Simple. Safe. Our April 2021 DuroTerra Dialogue discusses how Ductile Iron Piles (DIPs) can work in limited overhead conditions with as little as 18 feet of clearance – usually with higher capacities than helical piles and faster, cleaner, and less expensive than micropiles.

4) Lateral Resistance of Ductile Iron Piles
Small diameter piles aren’t the first thing that comes to mind when you need a deep foundation system to withstand lateral forces, but many projects still benefit from small diameter, low-vibration piles, like DIPs. Read our September 2021 DuroTerra Dialogue to learn just how much lateral capacity Ductile Iron Piles provide.
5) Applications for Variable Bedrock Elevations
Nearly any deep foundation project can be affected by unanticipated ground conditions, particularly variable bedrock depths. Read our October 2021 DuroTerra Dialogue to learn more about how modular Ductile Iron Piles with the Plug and Drive connection can reduce the risks for costly delays when rock depths vary across your site.
