- Location
- Orillia, ON
The site was comprised of loose soil overtop of bedrock, as well as a high water table. The site conditions required a deep foundation solution and a quick mobilization. Helical piles were determined to be the most cost-effective solution. EBS Geostructural was retained to design, supply, and install (70) CHANCE® Helical Piles to bedrock to support the Highway #11 Tim Horton’s. EBS was chosen to complete the project because of smaller equipment which has less of an impact on site, as well as installation without vibrations or spoils.
Compression Load: 534 kN (120 kips)
Depth: 13 to 15 metres
Total Number of Piles: 70 Chance® Helical Piles
