We extend the (1+1)-dimensional fluid solid-on-solid (SOS) model to include a confining flat surface opposite to the SOS surface subject to a constant load. This load is balanced by a repulsive surface-surface interaction given by an ansatz which agrees with known analytical solutions in the limit of two separated flat surfaces. Mechanical equilibrium is imposed at all times by repositioning the confining surface. By the use of kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) we calculate how the equilibrium concentration (deposition rate) depends on the applied load, and find it to reproduce analytical thermodynamics independent of the parameters of the interaction ansatz. We also study the dependency between the surface roughness and the saturation level as we vary the surface tension, and expand on previous analyses of the asymmetry between growth and dissolution by parametrizing the linear growth rate constant for growth and dissolution separately. We find the presence of a confining surface to affect the speed of growth and dissolution equally.
