How Shoring and Underpinning Work
Shoring and underpinning are critical construction techniques that ensure stability and safety, techniques Dwyer has mastered over decades. Shoring uses temporary or permanent support systems to stabilize excavation sides, slopes, or adjacent structures, preventing costly collapses during construction or repair. Underpinning strengthens existing foundations by extending their depth or width to support additional loads or fix settlement issues.
Push Piers Deep Foundation Support
Our hydraulically driven steel pier systems transfer structural loads through unstable soils to solid bearing strata, delivering permanent foundation stability with maximum load capacity. Ideal for lifting and stabilizing sinking structures.
Earth Retention
Advanced excavation support systems, including soldier pile walls, sheet piling, and soil nail walls, provide temporary or permanent protection for your site while safeguarding nearby buildings.
Shotcrete
High-strength, pneumatically applied concrete bonds instantly to any surface, creating durable structural walls and slope protection with minimal disruption to your timeline or budget.
Don’t let foundation issues derail your project. Let Dwyer’s proven systems give you peace of mind.
