How many types of the foundation for solar ground mounting? May 30,2022
With the maturity of photovoltaic power generation technology, more and more enterprises and individuals have begun to use solar power to generate electricity. As a photovoltaic brackets manufacturer, we not only provide high-quality products and good services to customers, but also should consider reduce the cost of photovoltaic systems for customers. Therefore, it is very necessary for us to learn the foundation for the ground mounting.

How to choose suitable foundation for solar mounting? Let’s start it from how many types of the foundation.

1. Cement foundation (also cold concrete foundation)
If the installation site is not suitable for plug-in ground screw piles, you can choose to make a cement foundation, place the ground photovoltaic support on the cement foundation and fix it with expansion screws.
Features: The depth of the foundation can be relatively shallow, but the amount of excavation and backfill is relatively large, and the amount of concrete is relatively large.

Application: This foundation is mostly used in photovoltaic supports with poor bearing capacity ground, flat sites, low ground water levels and high requirements for uneven settlement.

2.Hammer into the ground pile
Using a pile driver to directly drive C-shaped steel, H-shaped steel or other structural steel into the ground. This installation method is very simple, but the pull-out resistance is poor.
Features: fast speed, strong adaptability; high cost performance; not limited by seasonal temperature; easy to remove ground piles, does not affect the reuse of the installation site; It is difficult to drive piles in areas with hard soil; it is easy to drive galvanized layers in areas with more gravel; use in saline-alkali areas has poor corrosion resistance.
Application: mostly used for silty soil, cohesive soil, filling soil, collapsible loess, etc.

3. Spiral ground screw pile
As an alternative ground screw pile with unique advantages. It has been widely used in the United States, Australia and Europe and other countries, which can meet various engineering requirements such as compression resistance, pullout resistance and horizontal force resistance.
Features: A pipe pile or column pile of Q235B or higher grade steel material (like steel 450 grade) with spiral blades, which is screwed into the ground with special equipment(like the electric ground screw pile driver machine), and the top of the pile is connected to the solar structure. Its advantages are fast and convenient construction, greatly shortening the construction period, and being environmentally friendly. No vegetation can be implemented under various climatic conditions including northern winter and can facilitate migration and recycling.
Application: Gobi, rocky mountains, grasslands, tidal flats, deserts, etc.
