PROJECT OVERVIEW
Site excavation of 20,000 CY of soil, rock excavation, utility relocation, demolition of a small building, installation of soldier piles including rock socketing and lagging.

WHAT MADE THIS JOB COMPLEX
There were many restrictions, difficult site conditions and a short time frame to complete the project. Working in an open College Campus with classes ongoing and working adjacent to the landmark Gould Memorial Library and the open-air colonnade of the Hall of Fame for Great Americans.
HOW POSILLICO SOLVED IT
Posillico was able to maximize productivity by remaining in constant communication with the owner’s representative, designers, and subcontractors. Posillico closely monitored equipment and material entering and exiting the site to minimize the disruption to the students, faculty, and staff, during the excavation of the foundation and throughout our entire contract.
