Ground Beams Thornton Heath
Ground beams are used in Thornton Heath to support brickwork and blocks. They are typically made of concrete and are an alternative to trench foundations. The method involves digging a shallower ditch, inserting shuttering, and installing the beam reinforcement cage. This will then be tied to the pile reinforcement, if it is present. The concrete will be poured into the trench. This is a great foundation option for projects where traditional trench footings are not possible due to ground conditions, or because of services that run through the foundation footprint.
We have many years experiencing constructing ground beams in Thornton Heath for projects of all sizes and all over the country.

Precast concrete ground beams Thornton Heath
Precast concrete ground beams in Thornton Heath can be used to create a permanent shutter that surrounds the perimeter of a building. This will simplify the pouring process of concrete floors. The precast beams can also provide a base for the construction of block or brick walls. The ground beams are easy to install, and similar to prestressed panels they span between steel columns or concrete pads foundations. The beams are installed directly on the pad foundations, and no additional support under the units is needed.
Ground beams in Thornton Heath are designed to suit individual projects, the profile will vary depending on the surcharge capacity and span between foundations. The beams are manufactured in two profiles, with a toe, so the units will be self-supporting when installed, sometimes called boot-beams or as flat panels. The thickness of the beam can be altered to suit loadings and chamfers cast in the top edge.
Piling
With years of experience, we are ready for ANY type piling work. We do Mini Piling, CFA Piling, Secant Wall, Open Bore Piling, Contiguous Bored Pile, Pile Design, and King Post.
RC Slabs
Where we are using reinforced concrete for construction, we can use slabs as alternative foundation to ground beams. Being narrower, they offer a solution where depth might be an issue.
Ground Beams
Excellent choice of foundation for projects that cannot have traditional trench footings, such as ground conditions or due to services running through the foundation footprint.
Underpinning
There are several reasons why underpinning might be necessary and therefore different approaches to the methods used.
