Underpinning

Underpinning is the strengthening and stabilising of foundations of an existing building or structure which has subsided or has the potential to subside. Underpinning a structure can be a complex and at times difficult process, but Fondex applies many techniques to solving this problem; include grout injection, piling, jacking, underground beam construction and more

Should You Use Underpinning?

Prior to considering underpinning a detailed geographical assessment of the building and ground conditions should be conducted, this should be completed by an engineer specialising in this field. The report will provide you with options and issues you should consider before making the decision to underpin the building or structure.

Foundation Engineering is an engineering consultancy firm and specialises in foundation solutions and assessments. They can advise you of the best solution whether that be underpinning or not by analysing your building and surrounding ground. Visit Foundation Engineering for more information
