Abstract
A structure jacking system for raising a static structure, such as a building, to a desired level with respect to a supporting surface, such as the ground, includes a bracket that is attached to the structure and to a lifting assembly. The lifting assembly drives pier sections into the supporting surface and then elevates the structure once the pier assembly reaches the point of refusal. Once the structure reaches the desired level, the bracket is fixed to the pier assembly to retain the structure at the proper elevation. A preferred embodiment of the bracket includes a ledge having friction elements to inhibit relative movement between the bracket and the structure.
