Underpinning

What Is An Underpinning System?

Underpinning systems are used to transfer a load of the structure to bearing “helix” plates located in stable soil/strata. Intech’s underpinning systems offer fast, predictable, and measurable results and are building code–evaluated and accepted systems.

Underpinning products from Intech Anchoring can be used in residential construction or repair of existing structures, industrial and commercial applications in limited-access or environmentally sensitive areas, for vibration-free construction and loads subject to compression, and for uplift. They are also used for tower foundations, heavy equipment foundations, and many other deep foundation applications.

Helical Underpinning Anchors from Intech Anchoring are rated up to 100,000 pounds each. These are available in round or square shafts, manufactured from high-strength galvanized steel. Special patented brackets are used to stabilize or lift foundations in distress. CHANCE is the only company with a pre-engineered and manufactured underpinning system evaluated and listed by all the national building code agencies.

Resistance Piles, also known as push piles or jacked piles, are commonly used to remediate structural settlement. Resistance Piles are hydraulically driven to competent load-bearing strata.

Foundation Underpinning Systems From Intech Anchoring

Underpinning is the process of transferring the weight of a structure to more suitable soil than where it currently resides. This method produces structural support strength and can protect existing foundations from further or future damage. Most of the products we offer were all designed specifically to provide structural stability of this kind.
