|
|
|
Project Overview: |
|
Layne GeoConstruction designed and constructed to provide:
-
A barrier of jet grouted columns (green) to underpin, protect against ground movement and provide excavation
support for the adjacent building.
-
A block of jet grouted columns (blue) to encapsulate and mitigate migration of the organic fraction of fuel
oil present in the foundation area and to provide foundation support for the new structure.
A mixture of bentonite and cement was used for the jet grouted columns at the encapsulation block.
