Structural Engineering/Foundation Design & Repair

Foundations

Foundation Design and Repair in Florida

We design new foundations based on actual soil conditions and engineer repair solutions for foundations showing settlement, cracking, or failure. Our in-house geotechnical team can test your site first — so your foundation is built on real data, not assumptions.

Florida foundations

Sand, water and limestone

Florida foundations sit on sandy soils with a high water table, over limestone that can dissolve into voids, with pockets of organic soil and clay that move with moisture. The foundation that performs is the one designed for what is actually under it.

Design

  • Stem-wall and monolithic slab foundations for homes and additions.
  • Post-tensioned and conventionally reinforced slabs where the soils call for them.
  • Deep foundations, piles and grouted solutions where a geotechnical investigation shows the shallow soils cannot carry the load.
  • Foundations for elevated and flood-zone construction.

Repair

  • Settlement, cracking and separation: an inspection, the cause, and a repair design your contractor can price and permit.
  • Underpinning, pier and grout-based repairs designed from soil data, not from a vendor's brochure.
  • Repair documentation for insurers, buyers and building departments.
