The Problem
Warehouse floors that sink or settle create serious operational and safety risks. What starts as small depressions often develops into uneven floors, racking misalignment, and recurring cracking.
Common Failures & Industry Observations
- In industrial facilities, over 60% of floor settlement cases originate from weak or inadequately compacted subgrade.
- Floors that show visible settlement typically worsen over time, especially under continuous racking and forklift loads.
- Differential settlement as small as 10–20 mm can disrupt racking systems and forklift stability.
Why Warehouse Floors Sink
Settlement usually occurs due to weak soil, reclaimed land, water ingress, or increased loads beyond the original design. Surface repairs alone do not stop ongoing ground movement.
Our Services & How We Solve It
We address floor settlement by identifying and treating the root cause:
- Site assessment to determine settlement mechanism
- Partial or full slab replacement where required
- Piling or hybrid slab-piling systems for long-term stability
- Rebuild floors to suit actual operational loads
Our approach prevents recurring settlement instead of masking the problem.
