Foundation Design: Soil Profile
• Soil underneath the site mainly consists of loose sand and loose silty clay.
• Shale bedrock exists at approximately 60 – 70 ft. below the surface.

Foundation Design
• Shallow spread footing foundation system resulted in large settlements and therefore was not economical.
• Final Design: Pile Foundation System with Steel H-Piles driven directly into the bedrock with a reinforced concrete pile cap.
• HP 14x177 Piles arranged in 4x7 grid • Material: A572 Grade 50 Steel
