Lifting a House / Building
Project: Building Lifting, Building ReAlignment in Construction, & Foundation ReInforcement Engineering
Location: Panampilly Nagar, Ernakulam, Kerala
Why was the client approached for Building Renovation & Repair Services?
Problems faced: “Management House”, the office building of KMA had unequal settlement due to foundation failure and was tilted by 31.7cm towards the southwest corner along with percolation of water to the basement floor making it unutilized. Hence, they decided to lift the building x 8ft in order to have the floor level of the ground floor be 4ft above the ground level and to realign architecture along with building foundation reinforcement
In this project, the building was lifted by 8ft and realigned. A new pile foundation was cast and the superstructure was laid onto it. The needed structural foundation reinforcement was done as per the IS specifications and the building was handed over for the elevation work to be carried out to transform it into a contemporary building.
Why House Lifting is required?
Sometimes, the buildings or houses below the road level or adjacent compounds may lead to water logging during monsoon. In order to overcome this menace, the only permanent solution earlier was to demolish and construct a new building with the required height. Now with the aid of technological advancements, EDSS (The first house lifting company in Kerala) has come up with a solution to overcome this water logging and related issues. – ‘Lifting of buildings‘ instead of demolishing the building. This will help clients to save money and time. This will also help to reduce the harmful effects on our environment due to new constructions. Hence through this house-raising/building lifting service, EDSS is also helping to protect our environment.
Building Lifting/ Building shifting is possible on what type of Buildings?
This is a common question for house-lifting contractors. They wish to know whether shifting & lifting an old building is possible or with a weak foundation is possible. The answer is ‘YES’. House Lifting & Shifting technology can be applied to all buildings irrespective of their age, size, and mode of construction. Any building can be raised from its foundation to the desired height without causing any interference to the superstructure. In the case of ‘shifting of buildings’ due to widening of roads or for utilization of space in a property or for many other reasons, the building can be shifted to a corner of the property or to a different place. It is also applicable to all buildings irrespective of their age, size, and mode of construction. However, we recommend the usage of ‘Shifting of Buildings’ only for those buildings with archaeological/monumental value or for the buildings with massive size when the economics involved in “Shifting” of buildings is considered..
