3 Methods Of Underpinning :

  • Depth and Breadth Method: –Depth and breadth method to underpin a house involves spreading of the weight of the structure uniformly along the breadth, length and depth of the foundation. Professionals use this method for Underpinning a House if the house is seen to be leaning on one side. Structure leans to one side if the foundation suffers damage or the soil beneath the foundation loosens drastically. So depth and breadth method works best to provide a suitable surface area to distribute the weight along the dimensions of foundation and relieving some pressure from foundation and soil beneath. Although the depth and breadth method is considered one of the best methods for underpinning the house but it very costly and time-consuming.
  • Mass Concrete Method: – Mass concrete methods is a traditional and age-old method used for Underpinning a House. This method dates back to centuries and still utilized by professional to this day. The mass concrete method involves digging of box-shaped void spaces under the house foundations and filling these voids with concrete. Voids are placed deep beneath the house foundation so that it provides a firm and stable base for the house foundation to bear the weight of the structure. Professional Underpinning Services use mass concrete methods to underpin a house as its practical, safe, cheap and require no evacuation of people residing and without utilizing heavy machinery as well
  • Mini-Piled Method: –When the ground condition and soil vary under the foundation and if house foundation has very limited access, professional underpinning services use Mini-Piled method. To underpin a house by the mini pled method, professionals distribute the weight of deep down the house foundation. Foundation is relived o the pressure by place piles to a depth of 5 meters below it, strengthening the foundation and also providing extra support to the structure.
