PROJECT OVERVIEW
Restoring a 15,000 sq ft Industrial Slab
Location:
Burnaby, BC
Project Type:
Industrial Floor Stabilization
Floor Area:
15,000 sq ft
Solution:
Hydraulic Jacking + Polyurethane Injection
A large industrial machine shop facility in Burnaby, BC experienced major slab settlement between structural support columns. Over time, the concrete floor had cracked extensively and dropped unevenly—up to 8 inches in certain areas.
The settlement created serious operational concerns inside the active manufacturing facility, including:
• Unsafe floor conditions• Equipment alignment issues• Structural instability beneath the slab• Workflow disruptions
The biggest challenge: operations needed to continue throughout the repair process.
The Challenge
Full slab replacement would have required extended shutdowns, equipment removal, and significant production interruption.
The Solution
We developed a phased lifting and stabilization strategy combining:
Hydraulic Jacking + Polyurethane Injection
This allowed us to:
BEFORE
AFTER
Execution in the Field
The Results
The facility remained operational throughout the repair process while achieving full slab stabilization and elevation correction.
Why This Solution Worked
Project Impact
This project demonstrates how large-scale industrial slab settlement can be corrected without complete floor replacement or operational shutdown. By combining hydraulic lifting with high-density polyurethane injection, we delivered a solution that was fast, precise, cost-effective, and built for long-term performance.
