Can screw piles be used to support a cantilevered deck section?

Yes, genuinely — screw piles can support a cantilevered section, with the engineering design accounting for the additional bending forces a cantilever creates compared to a simply-supported span.

This is a genuine, real engineering calculation your structural engineer performs specifically for your deck’s cantilever dimensions, not a standard, generic pile spacing.
