OVERVIEW
RADIX was Engaged to Complete Site Survey and Testing to allow Final Specification for the Supply only of the Correct Ground Screw Foundations
Overcoming concerns regarding challenging ground conditions, the area of land where the ground-mounted solar system is erected was once partial woodland and unsuitable for standard driven posts.
RADIX was appointed to complete a full site appraisal including tensile static load testing to ensure the correct specification of ground screws were supplied to secure the clients investment with minimum ground clearance and disruption.
SOLUTION
Supply a Complete Range of RADIX Ground Screw Foundations to Overcome Variable Site Levels and Challenging Ground Conditions.
Site Survey and Testing
Conduct a full site survey including tensile testing across the site and recording of ground levels to establish the appropriate number of each length of ground screw required to accommodate the clients solar racking system.
Ground Screw Foundations
RADIX supply only of 1888 no. Pro Ground Screw range, made up of three different lengths – 76×1250, 76×1550 & 76×2050 to ensure a solid foundation for anchoring of ground mount arrays securely.
With a short mobilisation programme, it was imperative to have product available for quick despatch to site, ensuring no delays in hitting project milestones. RADIX maintains the highest stock levels in the UK to facilitate solar projects of all sizes.
