Helical Drilling

Did you know Ductile Iron Piles (DIPs) have been used for decades to support heavy structures??Our team designs and installs DIPs on projects with low headroom, constrained access (such as urban sites), vibration concerns, and many other situations where traditional Drilled Micropiles (DMPs) may typically be specified (and we install those too!).?Learn more about Ductile Iron Piles here:?https://lnkd.in/e8-GUFA3

Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our employees, suppliers, and the incredible support of Helical Drilling's contribution matching, we raised over $8,000 on Helical Giving Day for Manglaralto Giving! Every dollar raised will make a lasting impact for this organization, and we couldn’t be more grateful for this powerful community effort. Thank you to everyone who participated and made a difference!

As we approach a season of giving in November and December, Helical's Community Committee has designated Thursday, October 31st as Helical Giving Day!

In August, our team enjoyed a Picnic at Six Flags. Fun rides, great food, and quality time with colleagues and their families made it a day to remember! ?? In September, we took our teamwork to the field for a Charity Softball Game! With plenty of laughs, competitive spirit, and community support, we came together to raise funds for a great cause.?? From roller coasters to home runs, it’s been a season of bonding, fun, and giving back. Huge thanks to everyone who joined and made these events unforgettable! #helicaldrilling #geotechnicaldesignbuild

As students head back to class, Helical Drilling is proud to have a history of supporting educational institutions with innovative geotechnical solutions!

Geopier? GeoConcrete? Column (GCC) rigid inclusions have expanded bases that allow them to terminate in shallow marine clay “crust”.?Thus, GCCs can eliminate the need for deep piles that extend down to glacial till or bedrock. Read more in our News Brief here: https://lnkd.in/d5tnUmry

A 34-unit condominium in Boston experienced significant settlement due to compressible organic soil layers. Helical Drilling utilized compaction grouting to stabilize the structure by underpinning footings, and completed the project ahead of schedule.

Helical’s Community Committee has been helping make a difference! Our team recently collected and donated essential supplies to a local animal shelter, helping our furry friends stay healthy and happy. ???? We also rolled up our sleeves for a pond clean-up with Neoponset River Watershed Association, removing trash and debris to support a cleaner, healthier environment for our community and wildlife. ???? A big thank you to everyone who participated and to our community for supporting these initiatives. Together, we're contributing to a better world for all creatures great and small! #CommunityService #GivingBack #AnimalShelterSupport #PondCleanup #MakingADifference
