Abstract
An apparatus for and method of supporting a wall utilizes a multiple-featured support system. At least one support apparatus (200, 1000) is mounted to one or more walls (101), particularly foundation walls, in order to support the wall(s) and any load supported thereby, such as a building, statue, monument, bridge, and other structures. The support apparatus (200, 1000) may be mounted to the inside or outside of the wall. One version of support apparatus (1000) is mounted to two different walls, so that both walls may be lifted simultaneously with even stress on both. A channel (901) may be mounted between two adjacent support apparatus to provide a more structurally sound support system for different situations.
