Dear Sir/Madam:
AWARD Engineering, Inc. is pleased to provide our design for a Partial-Foundation Stabilization Program as
requested at the above-referenced property.
Per your request, AWARD has prepared a Partial-Foundation Stabilization Program for the above
mentioned structure consisting of a pressure pier underpinning system. The underpinning system bypasses
the top soil layer by transferring the load of the structure onto more competent layers of soil. The typical
spacing between helical piers is 6’ to 8’ on center. However, some of the pins’ distances are less at corners,
and more at garages, windows, and sliding doors.
The proposed plan, dated May 14, 2020, to stabilize the foundation of the structure utilizes an underpinning
system which consists of a total of fourteen (14) pressure pier underpins to be installed at selected locations
on the exterior perimeter of the structure. The actual depths of the piers will depend upon the maximum
pressure used and the lift observed due to resistant pressure at the time of installation at the time of
installation.
AWARD Engineering, Inc. will provide a final report, signed and sealed by our Professional Engineer
registered in the State of Florida.
AWARD appreciates this opportunity to be of service. Do not hesitate to contact our office to answer any
questions you may have concerning this project.
Respectfully submitted:
