Project Overview:
Ground Conditions:
Solution:
Menard’s ground improvement solution included the installation of 656 CMCs to an average depth of 21 ft and a maximum depth of 33 ft. Maximum design bearing pressures for the spread footings reached 8 ksf. The design provided for 1 in of post-construction settlement, meeting the performance criteria of the new emergency center.
In an area adjacent to the existing hospital, Menard’s rigs could not install CMCs due to the building’s overhang. In this location, 36 helical pileswere installed by Menard. Helical piles require smaller equipment than CMCs for installation.
To support a new emergency care center in Holmdel, NJ – which sits 43 miles from Manhattan – Menard installed CMCs with helical piles installed in areas with limited access.
