## Pile Sizing, **Installation and Verification**

---

Pile sizing has been done following the applicable project location standards based on a project given loading and the following points:

a- Pile mechanical resistance including connections and brackets

b- Pile soil resistance based on well-known industry standards and principles

c- Geotechnical report and soil parameters

 [Helical (screw) piles](https://www.goliathtechpiles.com/our-helical-screw-piles.md) are designed to carry axial and/or lateral and/or moment loads. Pile installation is done following the guidelines set out in the GoliathTech installation manual and performed by [certified installers](https://www.goliathtechpiles.com/find-a-certified-installer.md). [Pile installation](https://www.goliathtechpiles.com/installation-en.md) verification is done using one or both of the following:

a- Empirical well-known/tested installation torque to capacity ratio using the following equation  

P=Kt x T

Where:

P = Pile Installation Capacity  
T = Installation average torque last 3ft  
Kt = Empirical factor based on the pile size/diameter

b- Pile standard compression and tension test:

Compression ASTM D-1143-07 and/or ASTM D3689-07   
Tension ASTM D3689-09
