STRUCTURAL CHEMICAL GROUTING & UNDERPINNING
Support Restoration Technologies offers solid solutions for settlement problems due to unstable soils and shifting foundations.
Structural chemical grouting and underpinning of foundation support and column support provides vertical support and stabilization of the existing structure. Many foundations rest on soils relatively near to the surface; soils that are very susceptible to breakdown and other conditions brought by nature. When foundations or columns are placed in problem soils or subjected to extreme moisture conditions or lack of proper drainage, they can become unstable.
Other benefits include stabilization of soils near or around excavations close to building foundations to prevent undermining of footings. When correctly designed and installed underpinning provides support for the structure along with eliminating future settlement.

Causes of Settlement:
| • | Inadequate Footings |
| • | Improper Soil Compaction |
| • | Damaged and Leaking Underground Utilities |
| • | Decaying of Organic Material |
| • | Extreme Hydration or Evaporation of Soils |
| • | Sinkholes |
| • | Collapsed Underground Pipes |
