Safety Protocols in Structural Lifting
Safety is the top priority in any house lifting project. Without strict engineering supervision, uneven jacking can cause masonry cracking or structural collapse.
Core Safety Steps
- Synchronized Jacking: Using calibrated manual screw jacks rotated simultaneously in 2mm increments.
- Secondary Safety Catch (Cribbing): Stacking seasoned Sal wood cribbing blocks alongside jacks to catch the building in case of jack disturbance.
- Hydrostatic Water Leveling: Continuously checking level benchmarks with water pipe level tubes to ensure ±1mm horizontal accuracy.
