How far down will the piers be pushed?

How far down will the piers be pushed?

The piers have to be embedded into a hard stratum. We will not stop at a predetermined depth.  The piers have to be able to support two or three times the weight of the structure. This depth will vary based on different soil conditions across the state.

Estimates provided by RaiseRite take into consideration similar soil conditions in the area, if piers need to be installed deeper than estimated. Even with detailed soil borings and testing, depths will not be known until the resistance of the pushed piers can be tested to satisfaction.
