The use helix pile foundations in supporting structures on peat soil has became a challenge for road infrastructure. The helix pile foundation is an alternative for substituting the pile foundation if hard soil is located too far from the surface. Therefore, in this study we examine the bearing capacity of the helix pile foundation on peat soil, including analyzing the effect of the number of helix plates on the bearing capacity of the peat soil. The type of foundation used is a helix pile foundation with a single blade, double blades and triple blades. From the results of the research the bearing capacity of helix double is 35% greater than the bearing capacity of a single helix, the value of triple helix bearing capacity is 25% greater than the double helix and 70% of the single helix. The more number of helix plates used, the greater the bearing capacity of the piles given.
