ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for shoring a structure such as a foundation, comprising a support bracket engageable with the foundation, a pile adapted to be driven down into the ground adjacent the bracket, and at least one footing structure on the outside of the pile extending circumferentially of the pile in a plane generally at right angles to the central longitudinal axis of the pile. The footing structure has an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the pile for engagement with the soil as the pile is driven down thereby to increase the load-bearing capacity of the pile. A mechanism is provided for securing the pile to the bracket after the pile and the footing structure thereon have been driven to a depth sufficient to shore the foundation. A shoring method is also disclosed.
