Foundation Design in Richardson

Your home’s foundation is one of the most important elements of the structure. Typically, we find that the foundation of a home is low on the list of priorities and receives little attention because it is less visible than the rest of the house. As one client said “Money that is taken out of the foundation can be put into doorknobs”. In order to properly design a foundation, there needs to be an inspection of the lot, an assessment of the foundation soil, and a review of the home’s architecture. Foundations need to be strong and either supported on a stable geological formation or isolated from the effects of expansive soil. Once the lot and geology are defined a choice can be made between the types of foundations available to meet the client’s objectives for foundation stability. The choices of the foundation are:
  • Pier and beam
  • Suspended slab
  • Slab on grade (with piers and void boxes)
  • Slab on grade
The slab on grade foundations can be either reinforced concrete with rebar or post-tensioned reinforcement. Crosstown Engineers are top-rated professionals helping homeowners with foundation design in Richardson.
