Ground Improvement Techniques and Related Foundation Economics for Private, Industrial and Transportation Structures |
||
It's not a pile, it's a pile alternative! |
||
*Conveniently located at Newark Penn Station with access to midtown |
From wick drains and dynamic compaction, to
vibro stone columns and controlled modulus columns (CMCs),
ground improvement is a proven, cost-effective alternative to
pile systems in soft, compressible soils. As a leader in
geotechnical contracting, Menard has provided an array of
value-engineered, design-build foundation solutions to owners
and their agents. Whether you are General Contractor, Architect,
Geotech, Structural or Civil Engineer, the topics and local case
histories presented in this half-day program will demonstrate
the total system and schedule savings these techniques offer
over conventional deep foundations. |
