EHM was engaged to re-level and shore a two-story manufacturing building constructed in 1839. Schaeffer Oil Manufacturing in downtown St. Louis has been occupying this building since the 1800s. Over time, the building had subsided 6.5 inches in one area. We had to work within very limited space, specifically two 2’x2’ areas, to navigate around giant oil barrels and raise the basement wood timber, two floors, and the roof to level. A new concrete footing will be poured, and the wood columns will be replaced with steel. Great job guys.
