Underground coal extraction led to the erosion of the ground causing a nearby apartment building to tilt. The apartment’s foundation needed to be lifted 61 cm in order to re-level the sinking apartment building.


Solution

106 custom hydraulic lock-nut jacks were mounted under the foundation of the apartment building. The jacks successfully lifted and leveled the apartment.
