Foundation engineering
A stable foundation for your entire project
What is foundation engineering?
Foundation engineering is what transfers a building’s loads down into the ground or bedrock. A correctly built foundation is crucial for a structure to stand firm and last over time, regardless of ground conditions.
The ground conditions determine which method is suitable. On firm ground or bedrock, foundation work can be done directly, while loose or settlement-prone ground requires piling or reinforcement. We investigate the conditions and develop the most effective and cost-efficient solution for your project. As an ISO-certified full-service contractor, we can take full responsibility and combine foundation work with ground, concrete and injection works in the same project.
This is how we help you
Piling
Foundations on piles when the ground does not bear directly, from house piling to large concrete and steel piles for heavy structures.
Retaining structures
Structures that take up soil and water pressure, for example at excavations, basements and level differences.
Ground reinforcement
Reinforcement of loose or settlement-prone ground so it can carry the loads the structure requires.
Slabs and foundations
Complete foundation structures up to finished slab, including footings, beams and foundations.
Foundation in bedrock
Anchoring and foundation work directly against bedrock, often combined with injection and anchors.
Complex projects
Technically demanding foundation work for infrastructure and industry, where we develop tailored solutions.
