Heliovaas Groundbreaking Solutions
At Heliovaas, our crews bring over two decades of hands-on experience in the construction industry, mastering the art of operating heavy machinery, and equipment across diverse terrains in the United States. We began our journey building and renovating healthcare and school facilities, but as the world moved towards sustainable energy, so did we. Today, we’re proud to play a pivotal role in constructing renewable power plants across the country.
From the ground up, our services cover everything—from meticulous pre-construction geotechnical analyses to seamless production work. Safety isn’t just a protocol; it’s our core value that guides everything we do. Our team is certified and rigorously trained under OSHA and DOT guidelines.
Pre-Construction Testing Services
Before a single shovel hits the dirt, we’ve already laid the groundwork. Our pre-construction testing services ensure that every project starts on solid ground. We offer the following services:
Pile Procurement & Delivery
Pile Load Testing (Lateral, Uplift, and Compression)
Pile Probing
Infiltration Testing
Pre-Drilling for Pile Driving
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Soil Sampling and Test Pits
Site Clearing for Wooded Target Access
CPT Cone Penetration Testing
Construction Testing Services
When it’s time to build, Heliovaas is the partner you can count on. Some of our construction services include:
Production Pile Installation using ramming or earth screws
Drilling and Filling with concrete or aggregate
Solar Road Construction , Drainage Systems, and Culverts
What is Pile Load Testing?
Pile Load Testing (PLT), or pull testing, is a critical procedure that assesses the load-bearing capacity of ground anchors, tiebacks, and other embedded structures. By applying a load and measuring the resulting displacement, we can evaluate the performance and stability of these anchors. The data gathered from PLT can significantly value-engineer your project, potentially reducing the amount of steel needed for solar farms by miles.
Pull Testing Services
Pull testing is essential for ensuring the stability and reliability of solar panel installations. Our expert team guarantees that your mounts and supports are securely anchored to withstand environmental stresses, all while adhering to the highest industry standards. We utilize advanced tools and machinery specifically designed for precision in pull testing. Each piece of equipment is meticulously maintained and operated by our certified professionals, ensuring accurate results and the highest level of safety throughout the process.
Installation Services
At Heliovaas, we’re with you every step of the way. Our licensed professionals manage the entire installation process, from initial consultation to the final handover, ensuring a smooth transition to green energy. Whether it’s a ground-mounted or roof-mounted array, we’ll find the perfect fit for your energy needs, making your journey towards sustainability as effortless as possible.
Drilling Services
For specialized drilling needs, Heliovaas partners with a trusted national company that provides top-tier drilling services. This collaboration ensures that we can meet the unique requirements of each project, regardless of complexity. When working with our drilling partners, we maintain our commitment to quality and precision, allowing us to focus on delivering exceptional results across all other phases of construction.
Road Construction Services
At Heliovaas, we understand that the infrastructure surrounding solar installations is just as crucial as the installations themselves. Our road construction services are designed to support the specific needs of solar sites, ensuring that access and transportation are seamless throughout the project's lifecycle. We specialize in constructing durable roads that can withstand heavy equipment traffic and environmental conditions, including:
Solar Site Access Roads
We build and maintain access roads tailored to the unique needs of solar farms, ensuring easy and reliable access for equipment, materials, and personnel.
Drainage Systems and Culverts
Proper water management is vital for maintaining road integrity and preventing erosion. We design and install drainage systems and culverts to protect roadways and surrounding land.
Grading and Compaction
We ensure that all roads are properly graded and compacted, providing a stable foundation for all site activities.
Our road construction services are engineered to support long-term site efficiency and durability, allowing your solar project to run smoothly from start to finish.
Nationwide Reach, Local Expertise
We’ve made our mark across the United States, from the smallest test sites to some of the largest utility-scale projects. Our testing services empower project owners with the data they need to make informed decisions, optimize resources, maximize efficiency, and minimize costs. By understanding the true field conditions, we help save on material costs while ensuring every project stands on a solid foundation.
Terrain is No Obstacle
Whether it’s navigating through dense forests, fertile farmlands, rugged hills, remote swamps, or arid deserts, our crews are equipped and experienced to handle it all. We thrive where others see challenges.
