When foundation repairs may be needed?
Whether you have a suspended concrete slab or slab on grade foundation there are two main reasons they may require repairs: 1) Changes in the surrounding soil or 2) Inadequate design. Below is more detail
- Soil Instability Different types of soil pose unique challenges to building’s structure. Expansive soils, such as those found in the Front Range region, can cause significant swelling and shrinkage, leading to foundation movement and cracks. Collapsible soils, on the other hand, can suddenly compress, causing settlements and structural issues. Even building a foundation on rock has unique challenges.
- Natural Events and Disasters Natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes can exert tremendous forces on structures, potentially compromising their foundations. Our engineers conduct seismic assessments, develop retrofitting designs for earthquake-prone areas, and recommend flood-resistant foundation strategies to enhance structural resilience.
- Environmental Factors Environmental factors such as groundwater fluctuations, frost heave, and erosion can also impact ground stability. Our team evaluates these environmental risks and implements preventive measures such as drainage systems, moisture barriers, and erosion control strategies to protect foundations from moisture-related damage and soil instability.
- Poor Quality Materials Using substandard materials during construction can lead to problems over time. Cracks, settlements, and structural weaknesses may arise due to poor concrete quality, inadequate reinforcement, or improper construction techniques. Our team performs thorough inspections, identifies material-related issues, and devises repair or strengthening plans to rectify deficiencies and ensure long-term durability.
- Inadequate Design Inadequate or flawed designs can result in a range of issues, from insufficient load-bearing capacity to uneven settlements. Our engineers leverage their extensive experience in foundation design to create a robust foundation repair solution that account for site-specific conditions, structural loads, and regulatory requirements. Whether it’s designing new foundations or retrofitting existing ones, we prioritize structural integrity and longevity in our designs.
- Structural Aging and Deterioration Over time, structures can experience aging and deterioration due to wear and tear, chemical reactions, and environmental exposure.
