Difficult soil conditions can quickly result in the costs of a construction project exploding, especially where a complex foundation with drilled piles would be required. The foundation with STEEL-ROOT® is a much more cost-effective option. STEEL-ROOT® can also be used for lightweight halls that are to be erected at a certain location for a certain period of time only. They can be vacated again after the useful life. Moreover, it is not necessary to dispose of excavated soil.
Below you can see an installation example of a steel hall with the help of STEEL-ROOT® foundations. Customer: raeuber-bau.de
We deliver our STEEL-ROOT®-Foundations ...
1.) with a height adjustable flange plate, for placing the support beams or
2.) with a quiver in which the support beams are embedded in concrete.
Periodically excavation of the construction pits. Due to poor soil conditions a stabilization layer of recycled gravel was built addtionally.
The STEEL-ROOT® foundation can be easily assembled outside the construction pit.
Afterwards the STEEL-ROOT® foundations are placed and aligned on the planum — the exact alignment is done by relining the foot plates.
Then the old soil is backfilled and compacted layer by layer.
If three to four STEEL-ROOT® foundations are installed on the opposite sides of the hall you can immediately start to install the hall trusses.
A strong connection between the STEEL-ROOT® foundations and the base points of the steel frame is achieved by a base plate with a connection shoe which is inserted into the standpipe of the STEEL-ROOT® foundation.

Thanks to the STEEL-ROOT® foundations it is possible to build a steel hall within shortest time as well as in less load-bearing soils. The steel hall shown here has the dimensions of 65 x 25 meters (length x width).
