The Deep Foundation Institute (DFI) recently approved a new model specification for helical anchors in tension applications. The document was authored by members of the DFI’s Helical Piles & Tiebacks Committee - chaired by Gary Seider. Several members of the committee were involved with the development of the specification, and the DFI’s Technical Advisory Committee recently gave their approval for the release and publication of the document.
