Webinar – Helical Piles – January 27, 2026

Please join Saad Qoq, P.Eng., from Postech, for a session on Helical Piles.

This webinar offers a practical overview of the engineering, design, and review process for helical pile foundations, with a focus on Postech Piles. Participants will explore the basics of helical piles, the influence of soil conditions, and key considerations for sustainable foundation design compared to traditional concrete systems.

The session also covers on-site validation, frost heave impacts, and project examples, concluding with a useful Building Official checklist to support effective project review and decision-making.

Speaker bio:

Saad Qoq, P.Eng., from Postech is responsible for delivering technical training workshops and leading webinars focused on the installation and application of helical pile foundations. His sessions are tailored to address the specific technical considerations Building Inspectors need to understand in greater detail.

As a regulatory planner, Saad also supports clients across British Columbia by leading building permit planning processes. Through this work, he has seen Postech helical piles become an increasingly important foundation solution in areas where traditional construction may be impractical, cost-prohibitive, or where lower-impact building methods are preferred.
