Ductile Iron Piles Ductile Iron Piles, like other deep foundation elements, allow structural loads to be transferred through unsuitable bearing strata (e.g., fill and organic soils) into more desirable geotechnical...

Soldier Piles & Lagging Phoenix can design and install earth support systems consisting of pre-drilled soldier piles (“SPs”) or drilled micropiles (“DMPs”) as the main structural component, along with timber...

Anchors are used to transfer tension loads down to suitable soil and rock layers.

Anchors are used to transfer tension loads down to suitable soil and rock layers.

Soil Nailing Systems Soil nailing systems are utilized to support top-down excavation methods in certain soil conditions, and are most effective in very dense granular soils and cohesive soils. SNS...

Secant/Tangent Piles Secant and tangent walls are constructed from a sequence of bored holes either overlapping (secant) or adjacent to (tangent) each other. Both methods create a continuous concrete wall...

Underpinning Underpinning is a process that systematically extends the foundation of a structure to a deeper elevation. This system is frequently utilized in retrofit work where proposed excavations would otherwise...

Drilled Micropiles Drilled micropiles are small-diameter, deep foundation elements that allow structural loads to be transferred through unsuitable bearing strata (e.g., fill and organic soils) into more desirable geotechnical strata....

Drilled Shafts Drilled shafts are large diameter bored, cast-in-place composite elements in which the applied loads are resisted by a rebar cage, concrete, and a combination of end bearing and...

Helical Piles/Anchors Helical piles and anchors are steel shafts that are screwed into the ground using helical plates welded to the shaft. Like drilling a screw into wood, a torque...
