Re‑levelling and stabilising war memorial without disturbance
Challenge
Settlement beneath a historic war memorial caused movement and uneven levels, requiring stabilisation and re‑levelling without disturbing the structure or its sensitive surroundings.
Solution
Geobear used precision geopolymer injection beneath the foundation to fill voids, strengthen soils and gently re‑level the memorial with minimal disruption and no excavation.
Memorial re‑levelled
Controlled lift achieved with precision monitoring
No excavation required
Non‑intrusive ground improvement
Sensitive site protected
Minimal disturbance to surroundings
Background
Historic monuments and memorials are particularly vulnerable to ground movement, as even minor settlement can lead to visible tilting, cracking or long‑term structural risk.
Traditional underpinning methods can be invasive and inappropriate for sensitive heritage environments.
Challenge
The war memorial required stabilisation to prevent further movement while preserving its structural integrity and historical significance.
Any solution had to avoid vibration, excavation or disruption to the surrounding landscape.
Solutions
Geobear implemented a carefully controlled geopolymer injection programme through small, discreet access points.
The expanding geopolymer resin filled voids and improved bearing capacity beneath the foundation, gently re‑levelling the structure. Real‑time monitoring ensured precise control throughout the process.
Results
The memorial was successfully stabilised and re‑levelled without intrusive works.
The solution preserved the site’s integrity, avoided extensive ground disturbance and delivered a rapid, low‑impact repair.
