About Viking Helical AnchorsEstablished in 2006, Viking Helical Anchors designs, supplies,and distributes high strength helical piling products to the UnitedStates and abroad. Viking Helical Anchors’ parent company,Viking Forest Products, is one of nine divisions that compriseForest City Trading Group, one of the largest whole saledistributor of wood panel, lumber and industrial products in NorthAmerica for the past 30 years with sales in excess of 2.5 billionper year.Our parent company, VikingForest Products, has been in theforest products and constructionindustry for over 100 yearsProductsIn order to design and engineer an unparalleled helical anchor for deep foundation and soilstabilization, we worked closely with industry experts to understand exactly what it wouldtake to come up with the strongest helical anchor product in the world. What we found outwas that in order to achieve our goal we needed three things: strongercouplings/connections, stronger steel in the shafts, and stronger service. We did just that,using a patented inertia welded connection, 35% stronger steel, and 100 years of salesunderstanding and relationships.ServiceTo supplement our products Viking Helical Anchors also provides in-house engineeringservices to work every step of the way from project conception to completion. Our servicesinclude preliminary design support, stamped submittals/designs, design recommendations,site and installation support, custom design fabrication, and more. No project is the same,and our entire staff from sales and marketing to engineering and management will makecertain we understand exactly what makes your business unique. This allows us to provideyou with the absolute best service, going above expectations while building strong, lastingrelationships.2 Copyright 2013Viking Helical Anchorswww.vikinghelicalanchors.com

Viking Helical AnchorsApplications and UsesBuilding FoundationsWhen poor soils prevent the use of traditional shallow spread footings our anchors can be used, even in theharshest of soil environments, as a substitute. New construction caps are placed on the top of the anchor andrebar is tied or welded in before the columns are poured. The anchors handle all of the building weight, andbecause we can support large loads, quite often we can reduce the number of piles required.Solar FarmsOur helical piers have replaced concrete as the standard for solar structural supports on a number of projects.Helical anchors are easily screwed out of the ground eliminating the task of removing concrete columns andreplacing with fill once decommissioned. Lateral loads are the biggest concern in supporting solar arrays.Often we can combat these forces with either battered (angled) piles on the end of the array string, or wesimply increase the diameter of the pipe.4 Copyright 2013Viking Helical Anchorswww.vikinghelicalanchors.com

Communications, Transmission, and Other TowersWhether it is for self-supporting or guy wire supported, our anchors are the foundation for communication andtransmission towers across the U.S. We've designed foundations that save time and money by takingadvantage of our high capacity anchors to reduce the amount of steel required to support loads in excess of300 KIP.Wind TurbinesIn the past 1.5MW and larger wind tower foundations required an exorbitant amount of resources, sometimesin excess of 420 cubic yards of concrete and 60,000 lbs. of rebar. The more concrete involved, the longer thecure time required before the turbine is able to be erected. Our anchors have the ability to reduce the concreterequired to just the turbine foundation cap, saving an enormous amount of installation time, mobilization, andmoney.More!The applications for our helical anchors, helical piles, and helical piers as an option for deep foundationsystems are numerous and we have only noted several of the common uses. Our support and engineeringstaff are available to help you on any design-build projects you have in mind and we are more than willing totry something new. We'll turn your ideas into reality.
