Cast-In-Place foundations are often used where foundation walls are too tall to be practical with masonry. These walls can also be less labor intensive than CMU.

For walls of reasonable height, CMU walls are a cost-effective option for foundations or retaining walls.

Pre-engineered metal buildings are often used as warehouses, offices, and store fronts. The structure of these buildings come pre-engineered, but the foundation must be separately engineered. Foundations for this type of building must resist the uplift forces that are generated by the structure. We prepare our designs to allow for easy construction that minimizes the number of concrete pours necessary.

We inspect steel reinforcing for projects that may require a letter to satisfy local building authorities. Contractors may elect to hire an engineer to observe foundations when a building inspector is unavailable.
