Our country is located in a large-scale earthquake zone. For this reason, the construction sector in our country is one of the sectors that should be given importance. Buildings must be long-lasting and, most importantly, earthquake resistant. As a result of the geography we are in, we often hear the phrase "Earthquake does not kill, rotten building kills". It is true that it is a very appropriate expression. With the creation of sufficient awareness against earthquakes, the issue of building and ground reinforcement comes up a lot. If necessary precautions are taken in buildings and appropriate materials and technology are used, it is indeed possible to be protected from earthquakes.
Strengthening buildings as a precaution against natural disasters such as earthquakes greatly prevents loss of life and property. We inspect your buildings with our expert teams and perform appropriate analyzes. In this way, the reports we have prepared allow us to have information about the general condition of your building. With the reports prepared for the building and ground reinforcement process, the missing points of your building are determined. It has been confirmed according to the tests that the structures that are not resistant to earthquakes and worn out are more durable thanks to the necessary measures. Before ground reinforcement, the ground survey of the building should be done correctly. If the region where the building is planned to be built cannot get approval from the ground survey, ground reinforcement should be applied. When the weak ground is removed and the ground with more bearing capacity is placed, the structure will become safer.
How is Ground Reinforcement Done?
Ground Reinforcement has more than one method. The important thing is to apply the most suitable method for the ground. These methods are determined after soil analysis. Examples of these methods will be given;
Injection
Stone Columns
Jet-Grouting
Forekiles and Mini-piles
can be listed as. The weak layer can be made stronger thanks to these methods. Soils with high bearing capacity are placed in the area by using the filling construction technique. Thus, the foundation ground is formed. The concrete piers and loads of the structure should be transferred to this ground in a proportionally balanced manner. Purifying the weak ground is the first step of the ground strengthening process. If you think that your building floors are not strong, you can contact us. By making the necessary measurements, we can make the grounds on which you will build your buildings more robust and safe. Especially wet, humid, loose sandy, swampy grounds must be strengthened.
