DEVOTED TO CONTINUING AND IMPROVING OUR LEGACY.
In 1986, we assisted in developing a state-of-the-art “Apparatus for Raising and Supporting a Building,” which was patented in 1987 by our own Robert R. Shaw (US Patent No. 4,673,315). Since then, we’ve become one of central Oklahoma’s largest foundation-repair companies while still maintaining our local roots.
We are dedicated both to providing a strong, reliable system for repairing residential and commercial foundations and delivering complete customer satisfaction. In fact, we are so confident in the Ram Jack® products that we are one of the few companies that offer a true, non-prorated, transferable lifetime warranty from a life time company.
OUR SYSTEM
Driving Head
- The Ram Jack® driving head delivers rapid power to long sections of piling for a faster installation and a stronger pile.
Hydraulic Rams
- They have over 70,000 lbs. of driving force available to deliver to the Ram Jack® pile column.
Bracket
- The Ram Jack® bracket has been tested in excess of 100,000 lbs. of force.
Guide Sleeve
- The extended guide sleeve loads the piling vertically and rifles the piling as it advances to load-bearing strata.
Steel Pier
- The Ram Jack® steel pile material has been tested and specifically selected for its unusually high quality to resist bending and buckling. Tensile tests average 150,000 lbs.
Pile Connector
- The 10-inch pile connector is composed of a smaller diameter section of the same high-quality tubing and is crimped into one end of each pile section. The connector is a slip joint into the next pile system.
Expansion Ring
- This ring expands the soil away from the piling to reduce friction during the driving process for maximum penetration through unstable soil.
Soil Plug
- Creates a solid base for the lead pile section to bear on firm strata.
