Red Rock Consulting was recently hired to determine the bearing capacity of existing footings within the basement of an existing building. This was accomplished with a core machine, a hand-held water pump, a shop vac and a dynamic cone penetrometer. Oh, and 3 guys with muscles. It was messy, but we got the job done and made a friend in the process!
