2. Shaner Industries’ Products Patented Metal Foundation Designs Proprietary Design Method Developed by engineers to consider numerous factors in the design process Patented and Proprietary Installation Methods Use various forms of hydraulic and vibratory equipment to insert the foundations Shaner Industries | 724-266-1066

3. Basic Foundation Design Top Plate To mount a structure to the foundation Central Pipe Column Fins Two – four steel fins are welded on the sides of the pipe

4. DESIGN: Determining Factors Soil Geotechnical Report Boring Logs/Plans Blow Counts Water Table Depth Soil Type Soil Resistivity/ Aggressiveness or Corrosion Loss Rate Shaner Industries | 724-266-1066

5. DESIGN: Determining Factors Load / Forces Maximum load of the structure Maximum Overturning Moment Moment of Fatigue Maximum Horizontal Shear Maximum Lateral Deflection Rotation Others: Maximum Torsional Moment, Up Force, Down Force Shaner Industries | 724-266-1066

6. Standard Design Data Shaner Industries | 724-266-1066 The following values are for reference only and represent the typical design loads applicable to a standard metal foundation design and installation method. Shear Force – 55 Kips Axial Force Up – 50 Kips Axial Force Down – 70 Kips Torsional Moment – 300 Kip-ft Overturning Moment – 3,000 Kip-ft *In the event a higher value than those listed above and/or a restrictive condition of allowable deflection is required, our highly-trained engineers will custom design a steel foundation, with specific installation procedures and equipment, to meet your needs.

7. The Advantages of Shaner Industries’ Metal Foundations Eliminates concrete (No curing or waiting period) Delivers to jobsite ready to install eliminating large excavations Installs instantly in any weather with minimal manpower / equipment Minimizes restoration and clean up requirements Reduces construction time, saving man hours, downtime & money Costs less than concrete foundations Provides a safer work zone Can be removed and relocated if necessary, which often eliminates sales tax liability.
