Bowing Wall
Bowing basement walls can be dangerous.
Stabilization
At this New Windsor home, the solution for the bowing wall problem was the installation of PowerBraces with an offset.
PowerBrace and Double Offset
The image here shows a PowerBrace with a double offset. An offset is used when the brace is obstructed from meeting the joists against the wall.
Affixed to the Joist
The PowerBrace is attached to the joist, which in turn offers stabilization and is potentially corrective overtime.
Stabilizing the Bow
The PowerBraces stabilize the wall, offering the homeowners security that their foundation is safe.
