Foundation Engineering and Design
At Ultra Technic Services, Inc. (UTS), we provide comprehensive foundation engineering and design solutions tailored to meet the diverse needs of various construction projects. Our expertise encompasses both conventional shallow foundations and advanced deep foundation systems, ensuring optimal performance and stability for your structures.
For projects where subsoil conditions are suitable, we design conventional shallow foundations such as spread and strip footings, mat foundations, and basement footings. These systems are ideal for residential and non-residential structures with stable subsoil conditions.
In cases where poor soil conditions or significant structural loads make conventional methods impractical, we offer advanced deep foundation solutions. Our deep foundation designs include:
1. Piled Foundations
We engineer various piling systems to address specific project needs and site conditions. Our design capabilities cover a range of piling types, including:
Pip Piles: Ideal for transferring load to deeper, more stable soil layers.
- H-Piles: Used for heavy loads and deep penetration in challenging soils.
- Auger Cast Piles: Created by drilling a hole and then filling it with concrete, suitable for a range of soil conditions.
- Pre-cast Concrete Piles: Pre-manufactured piles that provide high load-bearing capacity.
- Vibro-Piles: Installed using vibration techniques, effective in granular soils.
- Mini-Piles: Smaller diameter piles used in confined spaces or where minimal disturbance is needed.
- Franki-Piles: Driven piles that use impact methods to compact soil around the pile.
2. Drilled Pier Foundations:
This deep foundation method is particularly effective in the Greater Cincinnati area, where shallow bedrock and clayey overburden soils are common. Drilled piers are suited for various challenging conditions, including landslide-prone areas, unstable slopes, and deep uncontrolled fills. Our designs encompass:
- Belled Piers: Featuring a wider base to improve load-bearing capacity.
- Straight Shaft Piers: Providing robust support for heavy loads with a uniform shaft.
- Caissons: Large diameter piers designed for high-load applications and deep foundation needs.
