Foundation Design

With the severity and frequency of damage caused by the soils of our region, it is critical to have a properly designed foundation. MEC understands this and takes special care to ensure our foundation engineering and design are done accurately and precisely, adhering to the highest standards of quality and safety. Our experienced team uses advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology to engineer and design foundations that withstand the unique challenges of our region’s soil conditions. We engineer and design the following shallow foundation systems:

  • Spread Footings
  • Stem/Footing Foundations
  • Caissons
  • Grade Beams
  • Concrete Cantilevered Retaining Walls
  • Retaining Walls

We excel in the design and engineering of various deep foundation systems, providing stability and durability for structures built on challenging soil conditions. Our extensive expertise includes:

  • Helical Piers: These are ideal for supporting lighter structures and offer robust resistance to both tension and compression loads, making them suitable for a range of construction projects.
  • Resistance Piers (Push Piers): These piers are highly effective for underpinning and stabilizing existing foundations that have settled or shifted over time, restoring structural integrity and ensuring long-term stability.
  • Helical Earth Anchors: These are utilized to secure retaining walls, support tension structures, and enhance stability across diverse construction projects, providing an additional layer of security against soil movement and external forces.

Our comprehensive approach, combined with advanced technology, ensures that each deep foundation system we design is tailored to meet the unique needs of your project. We prioritize long-lasting performance and reliability, guaranteeing that our solutions deliver exceptional results under the most demanding conditions.

 

We are always looking for fun new projects and designs to help with.
