Pile vs Well Foundation: Which Suits Your Transmission Tower

Soil report recommends pile or well foundation — what that means for your schedule and budget: A field-level comparison of both types

A pile foundation transfers tower load down to deeper, more stable soil through driven or bored piles, and typically suits soft, loose, or waterlogged ground. A well foundation is a large hollow structure sunk into the ground as a unit, and suits locations where a tower needs very high load-bearing capacity or where soil conditions […]

Monopole vs Lattice Tower: Which Fits Your Transmission Project

Monopole vs lattice tower selection guide: Terrain, span length and land access considerations

A monopole is a single tapered steel or concrete pole that carries conductors on a compact footprint, best suited to urban or right-of-way-constrained corridors. A lattice tower is a braced steel structure with a wider base, built for longer spans and higher load capacity, and remains the default choice for most long-run EHV lines. The […]
