Pharmacy Stabilization & Shoring in NJ

First, multiple 12" vertical and horizontal carbon fiber strips were installed to stabilize the interior wall. To tie the I-beam roof joists to the carbon fiber strips, our we designed a site specific solution. The technicians used custom welded brackets that were installed at 6ft vertical and horizontal intervals. The crew then installed custom designed and fabricated galvanized attachments to the footing below the slab with epoxied studs to receive the brackets holding the carbon fiber under the new slab.

Next, to stabilize the building, the Hale Built crew installed 20 grouted high capacity underpinning helical piles. The footing the pile's rested on was found to be 2ft thick by 6ft wide. With this solution, our team safely secured the building so the shoring and wall replacement could begin.

Finally, with the foundation supported, roof shored, and buckling interior walls secured, our team removed the compactor chute. We then rolled up the steel door and about 30ft of the 18ft tall failed foundation wall. This wall was tied to the existing block below the storage area and slab. The repair was efficient and cost less than traditional methods of complete replacement.
