Do I need an engineer for screw pile installations?
Yes. If your project requires a permit or supports a structural load, the City of Calgary typically requires a stamped design from a professional engineer.
What types of structures can use screw piles?
Decks, garages, sunrooms, sheds, additions, porches—even full foundations.
How deep do screw piles need to go in Calgary?
Typically at least 4 feet to get below the frost line, but actual depth depends on load and soil conditions.
Can you provide drawings for already-installed screw piles?
Yes, if installation details can be verified. We may need to coordinate with your installer or conduct a site inspection.
What if I don’t have a soil report?
That’s common. We use standard geotechnical data for your area and design conservatively to account for variability.
Whether you're a contractor, builder, or homeowner, Calgary Structural Engineers will provide fast, accurate screw pile drawings that meet code—and help your project move forward without delay.
