PRECISE LIFTING METHOD AND LIFTING AND REINFORCING STRUCTURE FOR PLANT EQUIPMENT FOUNDATION
20220145576 · 2022-05-12 ·

The present application relates to a precise lifting method and a lifting and reinforcing structure for a plant equipment foundation. The method includes the construction steps of: forming a curtain wall: drilling downwards at two sides of the plant equipment to form curtain holes and grouting the curtain holes, in which the grouting areas overlap each other to form two parallel curtain walls; forming a reinforcing body: drilling grouting holes inclining downwards, grouting the grouting holes to form the reinforcing body attached to a lower surface of a baseplate of the plant equipment foundation among a bottom of the baseplate and two curtain walls; and lifting: drilling lifting holes obliquely downwards to below the bottom of the reinforcing body and between two curtain walls; and conducting pressure grouting to the bottom of the lifting holes and then backward grouting upwards layer by layer.

A lift system and method for supporting a structure. The lift system includes a first buoyant sponson tank comprising a sponson tank that extends from a first end to a second end, a mechanical assembly extending from the second end of the sponson tank, the mechanical assembly to transfer a load of a structure disposed on the mechanical assembly to the sponson tank. The sponson tank is configured to be displaced by a volume of fluid that is external to the tank and the tank provides a predetermined buoyant force against the structure to cause the structure to be displaced vertically.
