In today’s rail industry, time, safety, and reliability are everything. Traditional concrete foundations require excavation, forming, pouring, and curing — all of which add risk, cost, and downtime to critical projects. At Aduvo Systems Ltd., we’re transforming the way rail foundations are built with our engineered ground screw technology.

Why Ground Screws for Rail?

Unlike concrete, ground screws install quickly with no excavation or spoils to remove. Their slim profile allows installation close to existing utilities and can be driven directly into rail ballast or soils with minimal disruption.

For contractors and rail owners, this means:

No waiting on concrete deliveries or cure times
No excavation in sensitive rail ballast
No spoils to haul away
Immediate load-bearing capacity

Built for Rail Applications

Aduvo’s engineered ground screws are proven across hundreds of installations for CN, CP, and TTC. From trackside signals, cantilever structures, and bridges to platforms, safety decks, and renewable energy systems. Our solutions delivers long-term stability where rail needs it most.

Engineered for Challenges

Bedrock? No Problem. If solid rock is encountered, the same screw can be drilled and grouted into place without redesign or delays.
CSA-Compliant. Manufactured to CSA W59 and CSA W47.1 standards, our systems meet the strict requirements of Class 1 railways.
100-Year Service Life. Galvanized coatings ensure longevity, with designs available for site-specific corrosion conditions.
Weather-Proof Installation. No matter the season, ground screws can be installed safely and quickly.

Training & Self-Perform Support

For rail companies that want to bring installation in-house, Aduvo provides hands-on training and support, enabling crews to self-perform with confidence.

Proven Results Across North America

With successful projects from coast to coast, Aduvo has established itself as the partner of choice for rail foundation innovation. Whether it’s new infrastructure, upgrades, or renewable integration like Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Aduvo’s ground screw technology is delivering the fastest, safest, and longest-lasting results in the industry.
