Pad Foundations & Column Reinforcement

Ghana

Reinforced pad foundations set out to line and level. It is unseen work, but every safe building depends on it.

The challenge

Setting out deep pad footings accurately in laterite soil and keeping each column cage perfectly plumb before concrete is poured.

Our solution

Our team set out every footing with string lines, fixed the bottom reinforcement mats, and plumbed each column cage with a spirit level before inspection and casting.

Outcomes

  • Footings set out to string lines and levels
  • Column cages plumbed and tied before casting
  • Reinforcement inspected before every concrete pour
