tukipohjat

Tukipohjat refer to a type of support intended to lift the structural foundation of a building or a bridge, typically from below. The primary function of tukipohjat is to prevent the formation of cracks or fissures in the existing structure, while also providing additional support and stability to the overall framework.

Cincinnati bridges Tukipohjat are commonly employed in areas with high traffic volume, where the repeated load and stress on the structure can lead to damage. They can be custom-made to match the specific requirements of a structure, including its shape, size, and support needs. Tukipohjat are typically designed to be self-contained units, consisting of a sup port system and a structural component.

There are various types of tukipohjat, each with its unique purpose and application. They can be broadly categorized into two main types: non-reinforced and reinforced tukipohjat. Non-reinforced tukipohjat are the most basic type, relying solely on the principle of mud jacking for elevation. Reinforced tukipohjat, on the other hand, may include supplementary materials or systems that enhance their lifting capacity or provide additional structural support.

Installation of tukipohjat may involve excavation and pumping fluid mud into the void or into the gap, following which the surface area is scraped clean. The effectiveness of tukipohjat can be evaluated based on their long-term performance, which depends on factors such as amount of fluid injected, raised soil settlement and properly terminating all exposed risers.
