FOUNDATION INSTALLATIONS
Bear Screw Piling delivers a high
performance foundation.
Piling through and bearing below the zone of influence, makes it suitable for a variety of applications.
As approved installers, we use the patented Katana twin-blade screw piles.
ENGINEERING
While we are not engineers, we're in regular contact with structural and geotechnical engineers.
We strongly believe that this independence from engineering and soil testing is the right approach in allowing our customers to use the services of whomever they prefer.
RAPID UPLIFT TESTING
This testing has been designed to make on-site testing a simple, effective and accurate process &
determine whether the pile will satisfy the nominated kN in compression.
All results are recorded on your Installation Report.
CODEMARK
QUALITY ASSURANCE
We took our foundation system one step further, by certifying it under the CodeMark standard - to provide added confidence and transparency to designers, architects, builders, developers and regulators
RELIABILITY
Ensuring the install process is simple, safe and delivers a repeatable build quality, we apply installation guidelines and training developed by our supplier partner.
AUSTRALIAN MADE STEEL
Our piles and extensions are manufactured in Brisbane, under stringent levels of quality control, using all Australian 400 grade high tensile steel.
Comparing Traditional footings vs Bear Screw Piling
Most of you reading this will have used traditional footings as your 'default position'.
And when many builders and engineers first compare old-school footings and screw piling, they just look at the price.
That is understandable - but price alone does not tell an accurate story.
The value of TIME must be added to any comparison.
When you value TIME there is no comparison between Bear Screw Piling vs concrete filled drilled piers.
In almost every case, Screw Piling is quicker than old-school concrete-filled foundations.

It Shows The Speed Advantage Offered By
Bear Screw Piling
Bear Screw Piling proudly partner with Katana Foundations, as our supplier of screw piles and accessories.
This partnership allows you the advantages
of local service and support
(the support of Bear Screw Piling!)
with the backing of a national partner.
This video (below) demonstrates the significant advantages that screw piling offers.
This is especially true for deeper foundations or for poor sites.
Knock Down, Re-Builds Are Perfect For Screw Piles
All Knock Down Re-Build specialists know when the original house is demolished and removed there can be almost anything left in the ground.
And usually none of that 'anything' is good for traditional concrete-filled foundations.
Knock Down Re-Builds are the ideal application for Bear Screw Piling.
As well as the advantages of speed of installation and the reduced costs, screw piling has another significant benefit.
Screw Piling means minimal site disturbance and much less noise or dust or vibrations.
Specialists in Knock Down Re-Builds know they are almost always surrounded
by existing neighbours.
Any opportunity to reduce impact on these neighbouring properties means a smoother build.
After the demolition, Bear Screw Piling may be on site for as little as one day
to fully install your foundations.
Comparing that with the time needed for traditional foundations - that's another win for screw piles.
Plus - your following trades can commence work on site as soon as the screw piles are installed.
Bear Screw Piling is Faster!

Switching From Traditional footings To Bear Screw Piling
We get it!
Many builders and engineers have always used traditional concrete filled foundations.
With other builders we've helped who made the
switch to screw pile foundations,
this what we've found...
Once you use screw piles on your own project, you'll truly appreciate the speed.
You'll appreciate the simplicity.
You'll appreciate the cost effectiveness.
Rapid Speed of installation saves you TIME.
Greater speed = less time on site
installing your foundations.
And this TIME - this rapid installation - is a huge factor.
How else can you add so much time,
maybe 2, 3, 4 or more working days,
back into your construction schedule?
Not only are Bear Screw Piles faster to install - your 'following trades' can
get straight to work.
Because screw piles can accept full load immediately after installation,
Ask Bear Screw Piling to demonstrate how we can add days back into your program.

See How Quickly The Screw Pile Is Installed As A Tie-Down Anchor Point
Once the screw pile is installed, the eye-bolt is threaded into the specially designed screw pile cap - and it's ready to be used.
Compare this screw pile + 5.1 tonne rated eye-bolt combination to say, using a one cubic concrete block as a tie-down anchor!
You can see how much less room our screw pile anchors take-up.
This means you can place more shipping containers and other tied-down assets closer together, as you may require - without dodging concrete blocks or water-filled IBCs.
Then, when it's time to move the conainers or other assets we simply return to site and unistall the screw piles.
Remediaton is a breeze - no concrete to remove, no holes to fill...
Rated to 5.1 Tonne, These Eye-Bolts Thread Directly Into The Top Of The Screw Pile

Mining industry Standards Require blah bla but we do this...
Our 5.1 Tonne Rated Eye-Bolts thread directly into the top of our screw piles - giving a fast, engineered, rated fixing point that will last decades* - or as your needs change, we can uninstall the screw piles and remediate your site super-fast. .
