The Engineering of Concrete Leveling: A Professional Approach

Concrete leveling may appear as a simple task of lifting a sunken slab to level it with adjacent slabs. However, achieving optimal results requires precise knowledge of where and how much to inject.

Precision in Concrete Lifting Engineering

To ensure efficiency in the concrete leveling process, thorough engineering analysis is essential. As illustrated in the attached sketch #1,

a settled slab in one corner can cause a rise in the opposite diagonal corner. Carefully injecting foam into the corner through a slow, controlled process can push the opposite corner down, resembling a see-saw movement.

Expertise and Experience in Concrete Lifting Engineering

Concrete leveling and lifting demand extensive experience and detailed engineering analysis. With each project we undertake, we gain valuable experience, enhancing our efficiency. Understanding the movement of foam through the proportional machine at specific temperatures and pressures, and through the hose into the injection gun, is crucial for accurate lifting and leveling.

Foam Injection Process

The foam travels in liquid form and begins to mix right before entering the ground, starting to harden as it fills gaps and soft soil, lifting the slabs above it. The number of strokes and their timing are critical to the leveling process. Once the foam hardens underground, it remains stable for years.

Commitment to Quality in Concrete Lifting Engineering

At Top Level Concrete, we provide a lifetime warranty because we use the highest quality foam material (NCFI) and personally supervise each project. We thrive on challenges, sometimes employing mechanical jacks alongside foam injection to control the direction and amount of uplift.
