What are Proprietary Foundation Systems?
Every successful structural engineering project begins with a solid foundation. Whether for use in residential, commercial, or industrial applications, proprietary foundation systems can be a solution to building foundation support, MSE wall and embankment support, liquefaction mitigation, and uplift resistance. Such systems, including resistance piers, tiebacks, soil screws, micropiles, custom anchoring, steel earth anchors, helical piles, and hydraulically driven piers, can reduce settlement, increase global stability, and decrease seismic deformation.
A lot of work goes into engineering foundations. From design and analysis to construction and repair, foundations are the base upon which all structures are built. These components need to be reliable and predictable and many products, from software to grout, are developed to ensure success for these critical components.

CHANCE is comprised of two brands of steel deep foundation systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications: Chance Helical Piles and Atlas Resistance Piers. Both are used for remedial foundation repairs. Helical piles are also used in new foundation construction, including the Helical Pulldown Micropile, especially suited to sites with weak surface strata. Other applications for helical anchor products include tiebacks, soil nailing, streetlight foundations, power and telecom tower foundations, and guy anchoring.
Geopier Foundations
Geopier's ground improvement systems are used to reinforce good to poor soils, including soft to stiff clay and silt; loose to dense sand; organic silt and peat; variable, uncontrolled fill; and soils below the ground water. Specializing in rammed aggregate piers, rigid inclusions, and slope reinforcement systems, Geopier provides alternatives for massive over-excavation and replacement or deep foundations, including driven piles, drilled shafts or augered cast-in-place piles. |
