Micropiles Made Simple
Micropiles fill a niche in geotechnical construction to address sites with challenges including vibration concerns, overhead clearance restrictions and heavily-obstructed conditions. But you often hear words like expensive, slow, messy, complicated, dangerous associated with micropile installations. Did you know that Ductile Iron Piles (DIPs) are being used more and more by project teams […]
DuroTerra Dialogue: In a Tight Spot? The Right Solution for Low Overhead Clearance
In a Tight Spot? The Right Solution for Low Overhead Clearance What is your deep foundation of choice when facing overhead clearance restrictions on your project? Many engineers and contractors turn to helical piles or micropiles when working inside existing buildings or with limited overhead clearance. Did you know that Ductile Iron […]

The Ductile Iron Pile System: A Cost-Effective Alternative to Traditional Micropiles
What challenges are you facing on your project? Working close to existing structures Constrained site Concerned about pile vibrations from driving These are common reasons why project teams have specified drilled micropiles for foundation support. Drilled micropiles may be unavoidable at some sites, however many projects can benefit from a […]
