Quality Concrete, Delivered On Time!

Concrete footings are essentially horizontal pads of concrete that serve as the base on which a foundation rests. They are placed beneath the frost line to prevent movement caused by frost heaving. Footings distribute the weight of the building evenly to the soil below, ensuring stability and preventing settling or shifting over time.

Types of Concrete for Footings

Strip Footings

These are continuous footings that run along the length of the foundation walls. They are commonly used in residential construction and provide a stable base for load-bearing walls.

Pad Footings

Also known as isolated footings, these are individual footings that support columns or points of structural load. Pad footings are used where the load is concentrated at certain points rather than distributed along a wall.

Raft Footings

This type of footing spreads the load from a structure over a large area, typically the entire footprint of a building. Raft footings are useful in areas with poor soil conditions or where there is a high risk of differential settlement.

Choosing the Right Concrete Mix

Strength Requirements

Determine the compressive strength needed for your project.

Durability

Workability

The ease with which concrete can be placed and compacted is essential for achieving proper consolidation and eliminating voids.
