3 FOUNDATIONS 2 of 6 12/10 Figure 2. Proper pile-to-beam bolted connection. Bolt and Edge Distance on Beam Proper Pile-to-Beam Connection Connection to Overcut Pile– Shim Used to Provide Adequate Bearing Note: Pile-to-beam connections must be designed by an engineer. Problem: misaligned piles—some piles are shifted in or out from their intended (design) locations. There are five possible solutions to fix the problem. (See figure 3 and details in figure 4): Option 1 – beam cannot be shifted. Option 2 – beam can be shifted laterally and remains square to building. Option 3 – beam can be shifted laterally, but does not remain square to building. Option 4 (not shown) – beam cannot be shifted, and connections shown in this fact sheet cannot be made; install and connect sister piles; an engineer must be consulted for this option. Option 5 (not shown) – beam cannot be shifted, and connections shown in this fact sheet cannot be made; remove and reinstall piles, as necessary. 3.3: WOOD PILE-TO-BEAM CONNECTIONS HOME BUILDER’S GUIDE TO COASTAL CONSTRUCTION
