Modern foundation construction with Krinner Ground Screws
The best ideas are those that are simple and easy to apply. “The obscure we see eventually, the completely apparent takes longer” Krinner Ground Screws have been revolutionising Foundation Construction for more than a decade. Eliminating the process of excavation and concreting, Krinner simply uses the Screw Foundation concept. What has been working in walls for decades, Krinner has successfully translated to footings. This versatile system saves time and money while utilising minimal resources. Its worldwide success attests to and rewards the company’s courage in challenging what seemed to be an iron clad law of architecture, by replacing screw piles, screw piers, earth screws, ground anchors, concrete piers and brick piers with the higher load bearing capacity Krinner Screw Foundation system. The company behind these ideas is as innovative as its products. Krinner has developed significant and highly practical solutions for over 20 years. The lateral displacement of soil and the ensuing compaction make for utmost stability, statically tested, verified and certified by structural engineers.* Our Ground Screws are made of forged steel, continuous welded spiral and hot dip galvanized – DIN EN ISO 1461.
