Applications
Where this work fits
- Existing foundation support
- Structural repair
- Tight urban or constrained sites
- Retrofit and improvement scopes
Specialty
Underpinning and Micropiles
Underpinning and micropile work helps support existing foundations, transfer loads, or strengthen structures where new work interacts with existing buildings, utilities, or tight access.
Methods
Related capabilities
- Underpinning
- Micropiles
- Limited-access drilling
- Sequenced foundation support
Context
Why it is used
- Used when existing foundations need added support, deeper bearing, or careful sequencing around new work
- Micropiles are often selected for restricted-access or low-headroom conditions because drilling and grouting equipment can be compact
- Common applications include underpinning existing structures, seismic retrofit support, slope stabilization, and foundation support in difficult ground
