Ground Reinforcement: Why You Need it and How it Much Costs

There are a number of different conditions which need to be met before you can commence a construction project, and of these one of those which is absolutely integral is ensuring that the geology of the area is perfectly suitable for the building to continue. Sometimes it simply isn’t as simple as laying out the foundations and then starting work; sometimes you’ll need to work the ground so that it can remain stable.

Ground reinforcement is a process whereby ground is reinforced through the application of various techniques and materials.

Often if the ground is unstable it is because the ground around the building site is too soft, sometimes across the board and other times it will vary a lot over even a small area. The solution for this is to add additional denser materials like gravel into the soil so that it becomes firmer, as well as to produce more extensive foundations for any build-work on top of unstable ground.
