Simple Pressed Piling
1. Depth requirement
can be determined
by the load of the
structure being raised.
2. Soils are tested by driving
the pilings into the soils.
3. Concrete is tested under the
load it is required to support.
4. Precured / tested concrete
enables immediate leveling
of structure. Most jobs are
completed in 1-3 days.
5. Site cleanliness and 1-3 day
job time save destruction of
valuable vegitation.

Limitations:

1. Alignment is more difficult
given below ground obstructions.
2. No reinforcement to prevent shifting of cylinders after installation
NASSA Piling System
"Networking A Stronger Support Anchor"
Provides all advantages of other piling systems plus:
1. The first pre-cast concrete cylinder with a steel cap drives deep and straight into the ground, all the way to refusal, providing superior strength for deepest penetration.
2. The steel connectors placed inside the concrete cylinders during installation ensures vertical alignment and controls horizontal movement for the future.
3. The entire piling system, networking vertically with concrete cylinders interlocked with steel connectors, provides superior tensile strength for stabilization.
4. Lifetime Service Agreement (no cost to the owner if adjustments are ever needed)
Bell Bottom Pier
(8 to 12 feet)

1. Bell bottom can be checked.
2. Depths can be verified.
3. Soils can be checked visually.
4. Alignment can be visually verified.
5. Concrete is steel reinforced.

Limitations:

1. Most pier failures occur because bell footings are not properly installed.
2. Depth requirements not determined by load of structure.
3. Takes 2-4 weeks to complete the job.
4. Timing and process can cause expensive loss of damage to plants.
5. One size fits all regardless of weight of structure or soils
