Selected Technique:<\/span> Treatment Area: As part of the redevelopment of a former gravel pit\/quarry facility, Vicano Development planned the construction of a new industrial building in Brantford, Ontario. Unsuitable soils were identified for a portion of the proposed industrial structure which required ground improvement to achieve the specified bearing capacity and settlement control for the column pad footings.<\/p>\n The soil conditions at the site generally consisted of a silty sand\/silt fill with gravel and cobbles underlain by very soft and oversaturated silts becoming native sand\/silt deposits. During the recent test pit investigation, groundwater levels were identified within the lower fill soils.<\/p>\n Prior to the ground improvement works, the work areas were stripped of surficial topsoil and roughly graded.<\/p>\n Menard Canada Solution<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
