Yea but you're boosted. And all your shit is color matched powder coated and stuff. It's worth more than just a bolted on TL.

The helix on the screw piles is 14" in diameter. Each one is rated to hold over 7000 pounds. It's overkill but I designed the deck according to city building code and they require piles every so many feet, based on joist and beam size. I'm also using 2x12 and 2x10 joists and beams. The deck is two s3ctions- the bigger section relies on 2x12s, the smaller on 2x10s. It is overkill but in order to pass city inspection, I had to do it this way. Oh well. This fucker will withstand a hurricane now
Obviously no way you can put that in by hand unless you're the Hulk. Like you said, I can see this withstanding a hurricane. If it happens, leave your house, hide under the deck.

I also was concerned about the earth being settled at the back of the house. When they build the foundation, they obviously over excavate in order to waterproof everything properly. It was backfilled only 2 years ago so some settling will still occur. With the 10 foot deep piles, nothing will move.

Sorry Steven, wherever you are. In your 'Vette.

Just to confirm, the TL (Type S only of course) it's considered a sports car right?

Dude wtf lol, even those small piles I linked you to can hold 5000 pounds depending on soil, are you sure yours are only 7000 with helix diameter like that? .

My brother suggested that I use the ones you posted, but they're so short. I've heard many times that our frost line here goes 4 feet deep, so there's a chance some heaving may still occur. Maybe I'm being paranoid, I dunno.
I had an engineered drawing for the piles and I believe it stated they can hold about 7500 pounds. I'm trying to dig it up again but I'm not having any luck. So either my piles are way under rated, or the ones you linked are over rated. I dunno. At this point, whatever, shits done. Nothing I can do now!!

I didn't take him serious.. trust me.
But he does obsess over my TL when I have it out. He works around the street, he passes by my block often. My wife thinks the dude is off his rockers. He gets into these street racing stories of his kill list. I temporarily black out for a while till the shit clears the air.

Anyway, what's done is done, you can now start building your bunker.

To be fair, it's not just about the helix diameter, it's also about the diameter of the pile itself. The helix only serves to make it stay there, doesn't actually help in case the pile collapses (duh).
Anyway, what's done is done, you can now start building your bunker.
