Our
techniques apply when adding new structures:
especially
rock anchor,
microfine cement,
soil nailing,
micropile
installations for
foundation support.
We
specialize in
slope stabilization,
anchors,
permeation grouting,
foundation repair
and support,
grouting,
soil nails,
rock drilling,
micropile installations, and
sinkholes. We
use a
problem-solving approach geotechnical
architecture of buildings, bridges,
water plants, sewage plants, tunnels,
sinkholes,
caisson,
shoring,
underpinning,
agriculture, and
roads
construction. We
are experienced in these applications:
micro piles,
sinkhole repair,
permeation grouting, pressure
grout,
soil nails,
chemical grouting,
micropiles,
compaction grout, and
rock anchors.
Our specialties are
rock anchor,
acrylamide and
compaction grouting,
mini piles,
sinkhole repair,
micropiles,
acrylamide grouting, and
soil nailing.
We will continue to
dedicate ourselves to
excellence,
including
insurance mortgage, in our performance, in our
integrity, and in our relationships with our
customers. We will carefully weigh our
decisions, actions, and results to make sure
that we remain the most trusted name in the

Footing Foundations

Figure 4-2: Footing Retrofit (increase footing size and add top mat of rebar)
Typically, columns are located at the center of spread footings, whereas retaining walls are
eccentrically located in relation to the centerline of a continuous footing.
Combined footings are generally required when loading conditions (magnitude and
location of load) are such that single column footings create undesirable engineering
problems, are impractical, or uneconomical. For example, locating a column at or near a
footing edge will invariably result in a soil bearing pressure that exceeds the allowable
bearing capacity of the soil mass. Other potential engineering problems associated with
edge-loaded footings are excessive settlement and/or footing rotation. The results of footing
rotation on soil bearing pressures can be seen in Figure 4-3.
These problems can be eliminated, or at least minimized, by combining an edge-loaded
footing with an adjacent single column footing. This is generally accomplished by one of
two methods. In the first method, two footings are combined to form a single rectangular or
trapezoidal footing. This type is referred to as a combined footing. In the other method, two
