Plants and Manufacturing Foundations
Foundations for industrial facilities are typically heavily loaded due to the presence of large pieces of equipment, liquid storage tanks, etc.
The floor slabs can also be heavily loaded by racking systems storing industrial products.
Geopier’s solutions for industrial facilities are specifically designed to address these heavy loads by reinforcing unsuitable bearing soils to create a very dense/ stiff crust that limits total and differential settlements to meet the project requirements.
Design Benefits
Geopier® ground improvement systems simplify the design process by allowing foundations and floor slabs to be designed as conventional spread footings and slabs-on-grade. The pier reinforced soils allow for increased bearing pressures and provide excellent settlement control, which can be of significant importance for industrial machinary. Geopier’s in-house engineering team can even perform FEA analyses to analyze complicated slab loads and help optimize slab design. We can even install piers indoors!Schedule Benefits
Geopier® solutions are rapidly installed, which can help keep your projects ahead of schedule. Our licensed installers can mobilize multiple rigs and work around the clock to meet any of your scheduling needs. As an added benefit, there is no need to wait for concrete to cure before constructing footings. Foundations can be excavated and poured as soon as all the piers in a footing are installed.Cost Benefits
Geopier® ground improvement systems provide significant cost savings, particularly for large projects. Our foundation solutions are typically 20 to 50 percent cheaper than conventional foundation solutions (deep foundations and removal and replacement) and can also help save cost on foundations and slabs by reducing footing sizes and slab thicknesses. Our systems produce minimal spoils which saves on earthwork and haul-off costs.Industrial Related Systems
