Our
techniques apply when adding new structures:
especially
rock anchor,
microfine cement,
soil nailing,
micropile
installations for
foundation support.
We
specialize in
slope stabilization,
anchors,
permeation grouting,
foundation repair
and support,
grouting,
soil nails,
rock drilling,
micropile installations, and
sinkholes. We
use a
problem-solving approach geotechnical
architecture of buildings, bridges,
water plants, sewage plants, tunnels,
sinkholes,
caisson,
shoring,
underpinning,
agriculture, and
roads
construction. We
are experienced in these applications:
micro piles,
sinkhole repair,
permeation grouting, pressure
grout,
soil nails,
chemical grouting,
micropiles,
compaction grout, and
rock anchors.
Our specialties are
rock anchor,
acrylamide and
compaction grouting,
mini piles,
sinkhole repair,
micropiles,
acrylamide grouting, and
soil nailing.
We will continue to
dedicate ourselves to
excellence,
including
insurance mortgage, in our performance, in our
integrity, and in our relationships with our
customers. We will carefully weigh our
decisions, actions, and results to make sure
that we remain the most trusted name in the
geotechnical contracting industry. Please

Safety
As with all construction activities, the Structure Representative should be aware of safety
considerations associated with the operation. As a minimum, the Structure Representative
shall review the Construction Safety Orders that pertain to this work. A tailgate safety
meeting should be held to discuss the inherent dangers of performing this work before the
work begins.
The primary and obvious hazard encountered with CIDH pile construction is the open
drilled hole. Common practice is to keep the drilled hole covered with plywood, especially if
the drilled hole is left open overnight. This provides protection not only for the construction
crew working in the area, but also the public. In urban areas, more stringent measures may
be required to secure the site.
As with any other type of operation, common sense safety practices should be used when
working around this equipment. If you do not need to be there, stay away from the equip-
ment. If a crane-mounted drilling rig is used, the crane certificate should be checked.
In addition, footing excavations should be properly sloped or shored. Imposed loads, such
as those from cranes and transit mix concrete trucks, must be kept a sufficient distance
from the edge of the excavation. If the Contractor intends to place equipment of this type
adjacent to the excavation, the load must be considered in the shoring design and/or in
determining the safe slope for unshored excavations.
