Geteok Design-Build

Installing Rigid Inclusions using the Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) method directly adjacent to existing structures. This low-vibration, displacement-controlled technique allows us to safely improve bearing capacity and limit total and differential settlement without impacting neighboring foundations — keeping your structure on shallow foundations and on solid ground.

When using helical piles in your project, conducting a full-scale load test is an optional but valuable step to ensure that the foundation performs as expected.

The test helps project team:

🔍 Confirm the pile’s load-bearing capacity
📏 Measure how much movement occurs under load
✔️ Ensure the design aligns with actual site conditions

While not always required, load testing provides additional confidence in the foundation's long-term performance, especially in challenging soil or restricted access sites.

Helical piles are perfect for new construction and underpinning near vibration-sensitive structures. Their minimal vibration during installation makes them ideal for projects near historical or delicate buildings, ensuring stability without disruption.

When dealing with loose soils, achieving adequate bearing capacity and controlling settlement are critical for foundation performance. One effective solution? Vibro Replacement Stone Columns combined with Predrilling where necessary.

Dry Bottom Feed Stone Columns are installed by displacing soil with a vibroflot and backfilling with compacted stone, creating a stiff composite ground system that enhances load-bearing capacity and reduces settlement. Predrilling is often used in dense or stiff soils to facilitate installation.

The result? A reinforced, settlement-controlled ground improvement solution that supports a variety of structures.
