Project Update! If you've driven by the site today you've probably noticed some new large equipment. This is for the installation of Geopiers or Rammed Aggregate Piers. This technique is used to strengthen weak or unsuitable soil so it can safely support the weight of our new building. This is an efficient and cost saving alternative compared to a massive over-excavation process. Once the piers are set it will be on to foundation and precast!
