Techno Metal Post is the first company in the helical pier industry to have obtained multiple certifications in the U.S.,  Canada,  and  Europe. All of our welders are AWS-certified.

Techno Metal Post received an evaluation report (ESR #3418) from the International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC-ES) providing evidence that the 3.5” diameter helical pier, models P3-8, P3-10, and P3-12, as well as multiple bracket models, meet International Building Code (IBC) requirements in the United States. This certification is renewed every two years.

Techno Metal Post is also the first and only company in the world to receive the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officers (IAPMO) ER-481 approval for its helical pile models P1 (1-7/8″ O.D.), P2 (2-3/8″ O.D.) and P3 (3.5’’ O.D.) and accompanying brackets. This approval means our product is compliant with the International Residential Code (IRC Code) 2015, 2012 and 2009.
