Challenge

Ryan Project

This customer had sinking concrete along the rear of the home and settlement along the front. The customer started experiencing this settling during the drought during 2011. While they hoped the foundation would stabilize due to the seasonal change, they realize it was causing damage to the foundation. The underlying soils continued to shrink and swell so they reached out to Vesta for help.

Solution

We decided the PolyLevel system would be the answer along the rear patios and push piers on the north east corner. The foundation stem walls were stabilized using FSI model 288 push piers.

Project Summary

Design: William Blake

Installation Supervisor: Adam Blake

Piers being driven to 3400 lbs of pressure.

Lift cylinders were used to put the foundation back to original position.
