The Different Foundation Repair Solutions

Foundation solutions for repair solve problems of all kinds. In OKC, there are many ways of supporting foundations and different repair methods used. If you need help, call Ram Jack. Using common techniques, we perform excellent underpinning on foundations. Underpinning is very prevalent.

Underpinning structures that provide repair solutions for foundations:

• Pressed concrete piers

• Pressed pilings of steel

• Helical piers of steel

• Belled piers in concrete

• Poured concrete piers

• Mudjacking

• Injection of soil

• Tunneling

The structural supports are roughly 6 inches in diameter and 10 inches wide, and as part of the underpinning process is stacked one at the top of another. They are normally installed in the ground around 10-12 '. They have to be remedied because they are concrete. 7000 is the PSI. This method resolves issues with the base.

For underpinning, pressed steel pilings are also used. They're a perfect solution to all of your slab's complications. Since they are highly durable, they are used for home foundation repair. They are normally mounted to a depth of 20-22 'feet using this method, but they can be bore down as deep as 70'. They're a good solution to the trouble you may have. When they hit the bedrock, they are pushed all the way down. This strategy means that they should not alter and have a good resolution.

For repairing foundations which are not very heavy and are a feasible solution, helical steel piers are commonly used. This requires some concrete slabs and substructures of piers and beams. In order to reach a depth of 15-18', they are spiral and are rotated into the earth. Material costs on these pilings are very high, but your foundation problems can be solved through this method.

Belled concrete pilings, although bell-shaped, are very alike to concrete piers. They are referred to by some businesses as' bell bottom' piers. They are stacked one on top of the other by using this method for underpinning, just like regular pressed concrete pilings.

By digging a deep hole (about 10") and then adding solid rebar at the bottom of the hole, poured concrete piers are installed. Concrete is poured into the vacuum after it is finished. They are a feasible technique of underpinning, but have disadvantages.

Drilling holes in a concrete foundation involves mudjacking. Once that's done, for solving other problems a concrete mix and other materials re used for injecting the concrete slab. Although this home foundation repair method pumps concrete under your substructure, the foundation is not completely reinforced. The mechanism for underpinning foundations has problems associated with this.

Soil injection uses soluble chemicals which are injected into the soil under your structure around 7-10". In order to prevent the soil from accumulating moisture and swelling and causing disadvantages, the idea is to use these chemicals. When soil expands, cracking can damage the foundation. This process may trigger some concerns.

In order to preserve flooring, tunneling is a technique which relies on excavating tunnels under a substructure. If they need to be jackhammered, buildings that need interior piers will suffer bad floor damage. It is one way for problems to be addressed.
