Keywords:Surefoot is an “all in one system”, where the unique shape and high strength steel combines to create a very efficient pile cap. Once piles are driven and the cap secured, the opposing forces of the multi directional piles provides a solid, stable and economical foundation. The system is designed to increase its efficiency when resisting gravity, uplift, shear and moment loads.

Ultimately the soil structure absorbs the applied stress. Our footing system is job specific and is designed according to site soil conditions, and structural design loads etc.


Surefoot cannot be labelled as either a shallow or a deep foundation and therefore belongs to a new "hybrid" type of footing.

HOW IT WORKS
Nicknamed the” metal tree stump”, Surefoot is best described compared to a trees’ root system. Surefoot spreads its foundation over a greater surface area, achieving larger load capacities faster and more cost effectively!
The system is installed via steel tubular piles driven into the ground by a simple jackhammer and attachment tool that can be purchased at major tool outlets across Australia.

Surefoots’ engineering principles are based on piling technology using a combination of skin friction and bearing. Because is a non-displacement pile, the system can be used in any penetrable soil-sands, silts, clays, small gravels and even rock as well as all wind categories. Installation times range from 10 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on which size Surefoot you are using. Adjustable in plumb and level after your foundation is installed, Surefoot has instant bearing capacity in every direction so your works can continue that same day.

Footings keep evolving to take advantage of additional means of withstanding loads, analysis of such technologies need to be developed as well in order to comprehend ther advantages and applications. Our system is engineered to Australian Standards and is Building Code of Australia compliant with load capacities up to 360kN (36 tonne). Surefoot's hybrid system can handle large bending moment loads which means that it can be used for just about any application.

PILE INSTALLATION
Close coordination with the design team during installation ensures a trouble free installation. Frequent review of job progress avoids problems and confirms that all piles are driven as intended and adequate for the project requirements. Questionable piles can be evaluated and taken care of in timely manner to avoid unnecessary impact on overall progress.

Unanticipated site condition problems can be solved through open and forthright communication between all parties concerned

SUREFOOT PILE CAPS
All of our pile caps are fabricated using high quality GRADE 350 steel and have the latest technology in galvanising coating.
