Underpinning refers to the process of stabilizing, strengthening, and securing more help. Rectify uses engineering skills and creativity to show off underpinning. These are a few of our most challenging and successful projects. The modern underpinning’s flexibility is evident in each.
Our custom underpinning solution used mini-piled underpinning to stabilize the foundations. This procedure preserved the building’s architectural details and irreplaceable pieces. This delicate surgery required precision and prudence, both of which were achieved.
The need to maintain business operations and keep companies running was a major challenge. Our team used jet grouting to strengthen the foundation, and we also underpinned the ground with traditional methods. This allowed us to continue running the business. As an engine was being repaired in mid-flight by our team, it showed its ability to work within tight time frames and pressure.
Not all initiatives require crisis management. Some include planning and prevention. Consider the new residential highrise on the fault-line seismic zone. The original building had underpinnings as a safety precaution. Using base isolation techniques, we isolated the building from any earth movements. It is engineering that prepares residents for future challenges. They can rest assured even if they have to move the ground beneath them.
Do not overlook the importance of small yet significant efforts, such as a community library. It is not a big deal, but the building sinking is. A non-invasive, rapid resin injection method was used. The procedure was used to stabilize the foundation, without having to remove library resources or disturb visitors.
Each example revealed new issues and possibilities. From residential streets and bustling commercial corridors to historic sites and residential streets, our work has strengthened the belief in safety, stabilty, and the enduring powers of innovative engineering.
Rectify sees underpinning as more than a simple technical job. It is an investment in the future of built environments. It means standing strong against time and nature. It also means making sure our walls and the ground underneath our feet is as reliable as we are.
