Helical Pile Foundations for a Modern New-build Residential House Near Trees

helical pile foundations for modern new-build steel frame house

The Challenge

Foundations were required a for a modern steel-frame dwelling with a number of challenges:

Nearby trees
Accurate positioning and level requirements for the steel
Requirement for minimal elements to create the appearance of the structure floating above the ground

The house was designed as an arrangement of individual rooms connected by corridors, all clad in reflective material to reflect the surroundings and create an invisible illusion.

The Solution

An arrangement of QuadraPile helical “screw” piles along with galvanized steelwork was used to support the building.

The steel frame and the rest of the structure was then assembled on top.

The finished house is a stunning architectural building living up to the “Invisible House” name and featuring in various publications and articles including the following:
