HelixPile Helical Piles Design Software
HelixPile is a user friendly, modern and powerful software program for the design of helical piles.
WHY CHOOSE HELIXPILE?
HelixPile allows the user to include an unlimited number of stage conditions and soil profiles. HelixPile incorporates the latest recommendations and reports the controlling design conditions. Helical piles analyzed with HelixPile include many of the latest recommendations that allow multiple failure modes to be investigated. HelixPile can design both Single Piles and Pile Groups.
Main Technical Characteristics
SINGLE PILES AND PILE GROUPS HelixPile can design both Single Helical Piles, and Pile Groups with multiple piles (the additional optional module Pile Groups is required). The software can also design Pile Rafts, considering the combined effect of the soil below the raft (additional module to our Pile Group option).

VERTICAL AND LATERAL PILE ANALYSIS HelixPile can perform both vertical and lateral pile analysis. HelixPile uses both the individual plate and the cylinder methods, reporting the most critical results. The general and the Helicap equations can be selected. For the vertical pile design, we can select to use either the Vesic, or the Meyerhoff-Hansen method. HelixPile calculates and checks the helical pile installation torque. For the lateral pile analysis, HelixPile can use either the defined load on the pile head and calculate the developed moment, shear and pile displacement diagrams, or it can perform a pushover analysis, calculating and presenting the required lateral load to achieve a specified pile head displacement. HelixPile can perform settlement analysis. In the software we can select one of the implemented pile acceptance criteria, or define our own. |  |
MANY PILE TYPES AND HELIX CONFIGURATIONS HelixPile can do full vertical and lateral design of helical piles. The helical piles in HelixPile can be of any typical shape (pipes, square solid and square hollow sections). In each pile we can define and assign and unlimited number of helix configurations. The piles can be grouted. Finally, we can use external casing on the pile head, increasing the pile lateral capacity.

INTERACTIVE INTERFACE HelixPile is an extremely user-friendly software, which offers an interactive model interface. In the model area we can create different loading stages and define all project parameters (external loads on the pile head, pile section properties etc.) graphically. All items on the model area (boring, pile, external loads) can be accessed and their properties can be defined through user-friendly dialogs. |  |
SOIL PROPERTIES - SPT RECORDS - CPT LOGS The soil types, soil properties and stratigraphies can be easily defined in HelixPile through user-friendly dialogs. In HelixPile we can create an unlimited list of soils and define all soil properties quickly. The software provides several estimation tools (SPT Estimator and partial estimation tools for each property using scientific methods and equations). In HelixPile we can add directly SPT Records and CPT Logs, which can be used from the software to estimate various soil properties.

STRUCTURAL AND GEOTECHNICAL DESIGN CODES HelixPile has implemented many international design codes and standards for the design and analysis (structural and geotechnical) of the helical piles. In HelixPile we can perform a service or factored design with the use of US and European standards. We can easily select and change between several US, European, Australian and Chinese structural codes.

MODEL WIZARD AND DEPTH OPTIMIZATION TOOLS HelixPile Model Wizard can be used to create any deep foundation model in minutes. We can use the Wizard tabs to define all project parameters (analysis settings, pile type and structural section, external loads and design standards). The Wizard creates the model automatically, saving us a lot of time and effort for the initial creation. HelixPile has an automatic length optimization tool. The software can use a defined step to increase the pile depth up to a defined depth limit, calculating the axial tension and compression capacity in each step. |  |
EXPORT REPORTS IN PDF AND MS WORD HelixPile can generate extensive reports for all examined design sections (piles) and loading stages. The reports in HelixPile are totally customizable - the end user can always select all the report sections included in the final report. HelixPile reports can include tables and graphs with all examined model properties and calculated results. We can also choose to include to the report all structural design equations and calculation procedure. The HelixPile reports can be previewed, exported to PDF or exported to Word format, so they can be further edited by the user.

About HelixPile
HelixPile 2017 includes lateral pile analysis options with trapezoidal loads
HelixPile 2017 allows you to import and interpret a full CPT log
From a client: The program is great and I have been using frequently!
Steve Gencorelli, P.E., Vice President of Engineering & Sales, DANBRO Distributors
NEW: HelixPile produces a full calculation report for your submittals!
NEW: HelixPile is the only software that has a settlement estimation methodology! Based on a method by our CEO, Mr. Konstantakos and Mr. Michael Perlow, that has been validated against more than 40 actual load tests.
> HelixPile can automatically optimize your estimated pile length.
> HelixPile can determine the bearing capacity from SPT records.

Import your SPT's or CPT's and estimate the helical bearing capacity!
Now you can import your SPT or C{T records and let HelixPile estimate your bearing capacity. HelixPile uses well accepted correlations and a powerful iteration approach to estimate your optimum pile length for both tension and compression loads.
Helical pile settlement prediction method!
HelixPile allows you to estimate the settlement response of a helical pile tested in axial compression. The image above is showing an actual load test in NYC loaded to 211kips vs. the calibrated response with HelixPile.
