What is a Pier?

A pier is a vertical support structure that is installed deep into the ground. Its main function is to provide additional stability and support to a foundation.

Piers are typically made of concrete or steel and are located underneath a concrete slab.

For concrete piers, holes are drilled and filled with rebar and concrete. For helical piers, steel piers are screwed into the ground and left in place.
