Jacking Columns of Existing Structures under Existing Loads
When dealing with existing structures, whether occupied buildings or buildings in construction, occasionally there are conditions that require stabilizing and jacking of existing loaded columns. For example, foundation settlement or loss of section in a column could necessitate such a fix. Various factors such as the column material and geometry, structural system, access, geometry and capacity of existing footings, or a need to recover elevation in the structure will have an effect on the selected solution regarding stabilizing or jacking the column. In this presentation, we will discuss several case studies and how the specifics of each project shaped the proposed jacking solution.
