Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about foundation piering in San Francisco, CA.
Foundation Piering San Francisco, CA
The Critical Role of Deep Foundation Piering in the Bay Area
Many San Francisco buildings were constructed over loose coastal sands, artificial fill, or unstable hillside colluvium susceptible to consolidation and seismic settlement. Shallow footings cannot resist the soil movement that follows heavy winter rainfall or sudden seismic ground shaking. Hydraulic push piering bypasses these unstable surface zones, transferring the structure's weight directly into bedrock to prevent progressive structural failure.
