I. INTRODUCTION This Technical Design Manual (TDM) is a comprehensive collection of information for the express purpose to educate the practicing engineer in the art of helical pile design. The amount of information is extensive, and we recognize the need to provide a short length “primer” for the busy professional who does not have the time to read and learn all the comprehensive methods used to design helical piles. The goal of this “How To” is to bring the design and selection of helical piles and anchors into a short easy-to-follow Guide- line. This Guideline will provide the design method used every day by the Application Engineering Staffs at Hubbell Power Systems, Inc. and its authorized Civil Construction Distributors. Citations throughout will direct the designer where to find the required information in the Technical Design Manual. The result is a simple step-by-step process culminating in a helical pile design that can then be correctly written into a project specification.
