INTRODUCTION
• This technique was introduced for the first time in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1799
for the purpose of moving a building.
• An automobile company in Philadelphia, is the actual introducer of this Building
Lifting Technique.
• Lifting of building is best solution.
• Lifting of building is done with the help of jacks.
• The building is separated from its foundation, lifted with hydraulic jacks, and placed
on a new or extended foundation.
HOUSE LIFTED BY HYDRAULIC JACKS
NECESSITY
• When the road level is increased above the level of building, then this technique is
used to lifting/elevating the building.
• If your house is below the street level and sewage water regularly flows in,
relocation is not the best solution.
• There is a solution to this problem and it would be house lifting
• There are lot of wrong done during the construction of House or Building. Many
times the owner think about to correct those wrong done, but it takes lot of money
and time. There were no solution in the past. But now here is the solution. i.e.
Building Lifting Technique.
METHODOLOGY
• Firstly, take all the useful information about the building.
• Study the weak members and the members of the building which requires the
support before lift.
• Then load calculation of the building is done to have a knowledge of how much
jacks are used to lift.
• Generally, 3 jacks required per m2 for a normal building (for G+3 floor building).
• Before elevating, disconnect the
supplies of the building like
electricity, gas connection,
drainage connection etc. to
avoid the interruption in the
work and for the safety of the
people working.
• At first the excavation is done
near the walls for the application
of the jacks, the jacks are
applied below the ground beam
or supports of steel beams.
• The jacks are applied in the space of the excavation and the jacks are applied and
the house is lifted by jacking the jacks simultaneously.
• The jacks are removed and the parallel brick masonry is done to support the lifting
of the building.
• The pebbles and moorum are filled in the plinth area of the building.
• After that, flooring is done. After the completion of the flooring the supply
connections are connected.
• After the lifting of
the house is done
the filling of cracks
is done with the
cement grouting.
ADVANTAGES
• House Lifting Technology are cheap and effective and saved lakhs of rupees and
valuable time.
• When your house is below the road level, it can be easily lifted and shifted without
any damage and raising their level in one go with the help of Jack.
• By house lifting technology, Building is protected against all forms of Natural
disaster.
• Indirectly saves the construction material that helps in natural resources of
environment.
• Remain at your current facility. No need for relocation.
• Improve marketability of existing industrial buildings.
• New construction of any building is time consuming, so it is used to faster work.
DISADVANTAGES
• Somewhat about risky when there was any type of quakes are in earth.
• Applicable only for G+4 floor building.
• Not applicable for skyscrapers, high raised building.
• Force due to wind and seismic hazards must be considered
• Additional stairs may be required to access the structure
• Elevation may significantly alter the appearance of the structure.
• Special measures must be taken if the structure will be subject to high velocity water
flow, fast moving ice or debris flow, or erosion.
CONCLUSION
• When your house is below the road level, it can be easily lifted and shifted without any
damage and raising their level in one go with the help of Jack.
• House Lifting Technologies are cheap and effective and saved lakhs of rupees and
valuable time.
• We would have to manage all equipment operating systems successfully to complete

the process of lifting house.
• The house lifting task is completed by a team of certified professionals who know how
to use the equipment and those that have experience in handling such a project.
• Construction by method of House lifting is cheaper than usual construction method &
saving time. Hence, it is preferred to use house lifting method for repairing of
foundation and increasing plinth height for residential building. This method also helps
to save construction materials which indirectly help in saving the natural resources of
environment.
