Underpinning techniques are construction methods used to strengthen or stabilize the foundation of a building or structure. These underpinning systems are employed when the existing foundation has become compromised due to soil movement, subsidence, structural issues, or changes in the building’s usage.
The choice of underpinning technology depends on various factors, including the type and condition of the existing foundation, soil properties, site access, and the project’s specific requirements. It’s essential to consult with a structural engineer or construction professional to determine the most suitable underpinning method for a given situation.
