MHC1082-5O16B1 Adjustable Plate Cap Allowable Capacity 27.5

Magnum MHC1082-5B1 adjustable plate cap has 42 tons ultimate capacity, 21 tons allowable capacity in compression and tension. The adjustable plate cap consists of a collar tube with a bolt hole for connection to Magnum helical piles. A 12”Ø x 1/2” plate secured to a threaded bar that allows up to 3-1/2” of elevation adjustability. The unique Design of this cap allows it to be used in applications where lateral loads and/or bending will be applied to the top of the pile. This can only be resisted by the strength of an equally rigid thread bar. The cap is designed to have the same or greater bending strength as the pile shaft. The adjustable plate cap is designed in accordance with ICC-ES document AC358 as well as IBC and ASIC codes. Application of the cap varies by project and is the responsibility of the registered design professional.

Description

After installation of MAGNUM® Helical Pile to the correct depth, torque, elevation, and capacity. Note pile must be set at +0"/-3.5" from planned elevation. Stop installation If pile shaft is set higher than this elevation range due to reaching maximum torque or refusal. Cut-off the pile shaft at the proper elevation. Drill (1) 1-9/16" hole using the Magnum drill template. Place the pile cap over the shaft and secure with (1) 1-1/2" bolt. Snug tighten nuts. Alternatively, drilling through pile may be omitted and plug welds may be used to secure cap to pile in place of bolts. See Magnum Technical Bulletin TB004.0. Adjust final elevation by turning plate as required. Place steel beam/post on cap and weld or secure as required for the project.
