Sinking Concerete in Tarrytown, NY
Concrete is a heavy material and so are the vehicles, machinery and structures that concrete slabs like this one are expected to support. Sometimes, the combined weight of concrete and what it supports causes concrete settlement to occur. The soil beneath the concrete compresses, and can cause major problems. PolyLEVEL is designed specifically to repair this type of problem. The polymer consists of two separate liquids that are combined right at the injection nozzle to trigger a chemical reaction that turns the blended ingredients into expanding, high-density foam. The foam flows into voids and between loose soil particles, expanding to about 15 times its initial volume. This expansive action effectively lifts settled concrete.

Over time, these soils shift and settle with changes in moisture content and density, causing movement of the columns and the beams above. The SmartJack is a supplemental support system that helps correct issues caused by inadequate structural design, weak foundation soils supporting columns or rot and weakening of the floor system due to high humidity and moisture levels within a crawlspace.
