A slab support system is a key element in the construction of any home. It is responsible for supporting the weight of the house and transferring loads evenly to the foundation. Proper design and installation of a slab support system are essential to the long-term stability and performance of your home. The design process for a slab support system begins by understanding the loads that will be placed on it. Once these are known, the soil type and climate must be assessed to determine which foundation system is necessary. After this step has been accomplished, materials can be selected, and plans designed accordingly; however, care should still be taken when installing these components to ensure that they operate as intended — ensuring proper installation of all components could mean life or death!
