Ground Beams Upminster, RM14
Ground Beams Upminster
Ground beams are used in Upminster 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 Upminster for projects of all sizes and all over the country.

Precast concrete ground beams Upminster
Precast concrete ground beams in Upminster 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 are also used as a base to build brick or block walls. Installation of the ground beams is quick and easy, similar to the prestressed panels, they are designed to span between steel columns or concrete pad foundations. The beams sit directly on top of the pad foundations and no additional support is required under the units.
Ground beams in Upminster 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 beam thickness can be adjusted to suit the loading and the chamfers 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.
