Square Torque Test
Torque testing of 1.5” square shaft helical tieback per ICC-ES AC358.

Foundation Supportworks' foundation repair products are designed by licensed professional structural and geotechnical engineers (PE) on staff at FSI. FSI's retrofit and new construction foundation support systems are highly specialized and require a thorough understanding of load paths and interaction with interface materials. The products are designed in accordance with traditional, accepted AISC methods, and then tested to confirm product capacities.

Our systems are tested at independent laboratories and, if required, at independent laboratories accredited by the International Accreditation Service (IAS) to perform product-specific testing. Our mission is to bring superior products to the marketplace, engineered to perform and tested in accordance with documented criteria.

Axial Compression Test
