ECP Partner Spotlight
For our latest ECP Partner Spotlight, ECP is pleased to feature Midwest Foundation Tech, providing registered civil engineering in both Ohio and California, as well as foundation design and construction services. With an emphasis on the interface between soil and structures, this team has been part of the industry since 2002. In this Spotlight, we highlight two case studies that utilize ECP products.
Sewer Line Repair and Sheet Pile Wall Construction
Our first case study features a multi-phased project completed by Midwest Foundation Tech. For one phase of the project, MFT used ECP’s round shaft piles to support 23 concrete saddles and two new manholes. This was done in order to support a portion of a sanitary sewer. The sewer line had been failing due to the type of soil it was in, as well as bank erosion from the nearby river.
Part two of this project involved configuring a sheet pile wall using ECP’s sheet piling as well as tiebacks to hold the surrounding soils in place. In the images below you can see the project at different points as it progressed.
Retaining Wall Replacement
Our second case study focuses on a job in which Midwest Foundation Tech removed and replaced an existing, failing retaining wall using ECP helical piers and helical tiebacks. This posed quite a few challenges from the placement of the wall itself to the varying heights of the wall.
The team successfully rebuilt the wall using 34 piers and 30 tiebacks, in about one month. The images below show the progress of the retaining wall.
