More about this Screwpile job
The engineering requirements of a planned expansion of the CocaCola bottling plant required shoring support of a heavy storage tank – and without screwpiles, this automated plant would run the risk of being unable to operate if the tank shifted or settled improperly. By installing screwpiles with an known engineered load factor, a solid and reliable foundation was created for the long term with no risk of settling or shifting.
