DYWIDAG Threadbar Micropile System
The ideal foundation element: economical, space-saving, and strong.
- Uplift Restraint
- Foundation
The DYWIDAG ThreadbarMicropile is a drilled and grouted micropile with a diameter of less than 300mm (12 in.). Centrally reinforced with one DYWIDAG Threadbar, the DYWIDAG ThreadbarMicropile transfers large loads (including tensile, compression, and alternating) using small diameter drill holes in any soil type. It is particularly suited to low headroom applications or where piles are located adjacent to existing structures.
The DYWIDAG ThreadbarMicropile is a simple, economical and universally applicable foundation element.
Compact, lightweight drilling equipment allows for pile installation even in areas with low headroom or restricted space
Small, economic drill hole diameters, thus less cutting volume to manage
Vibration-free drilling prevents damage to adjacent structures, so drill holes can be placed close to existing walls or structures whilst keeping disruption to a minimum
Short bar sections with couplers can be utilized in low headroom locations
Continuous robust thread allows for rough site handling and for easy on-site length adjustments since cutting or coupling of the rod is possible along its entire length
