- How do you make sure the Geopier ground improvement design is optimized?
- How should the allowable bearing pressure recommendations in the Geotechnical Report be used?
- What bearing pressure values should the structural engineer use for designing footings?
- Have you addressed coordination with site grading, support of excavation, and utility installation?
Using shallow spread and strip footings on improved ground with Geopier can achieve significant value for your project, but what is the best way to make sure these savings are realized? What are the construction coordination issues you need to address when using ground improvement systems, and how does your project team coordinate this effort?
