Comprehensive Underpinning Solutions for Complex Foundation Challenges
At Total Groundworks & Drainage, we specialise in providing flexible underpinning solutions to address a variety of complex foundation problems. Our expertise and advanced techniques ensure that we can handle even the most challenging ground conditions at your project location.
Piling as an Alternative Remedy
When traditional underpinning is not possible due to extremely poor ground conditions, our expert piling teams step in with alternative remedies. We utilize piles and needle beams to support defective foundations and walls effectively. This combination of techniques ensures that we can solve even the most intricate foundation issues.
Expertise in Underpinning Shaft Construction
In scenarios where the ground has a stand-up time and minimal or controllable groundwater, we employ an effective underpinning technique. This method involves constructing a shaft by removing the ground using excavators and cranes, followed by installing precast concrete segments in their final place.
This technique is particularly useful in stiff or harder ground conditions where traditional caissons are not feasible. Additionally, it offers several advantages over the caisson technique, including shorter establishment times, reduced equipment needs, and better control over shaft position and orientation.
