Professional foundation repair certification and training can be accessed through a combination of manufacturer programs and major industry associations. These resources ensure that installers maintain high standards and comply with local building codes.
Key resources for engineering and certification include:
- The National Foundation Repair Association (NFRA): This organization provides professional development programs, conferences, and formal certification training. Their programs validate installer expertise and promote ethical standards within the foundation repair community.
- Helical Technology Training: We offer hands-on on-site installation training and a dedicated certification program endorsed by the NFRA. This includes access to a marketing toolkit and direct support from our engineering team.
- ADSC-IAFD (International Association of Foundation Drilling): This association offers technical publications, industry standards, and educational programs through their Learning Lab. These resources specialize in techniques for commercial foundation underpinning and drilled shaft applications.
- Design and Documentation Tools: Certification is supported by technical backing, including ICC-ES and ISO-certified product documentation. Installers also have access to real-time design software to accurately model loads and configurations, ensuring all work meets ICC-ES AC358 standards.
