High Capacity Macropiles™ for a New 70 Story Tower in Manhattan
Publication: IFCEE 2018
Abstract
Hayward Baker (HB) installed macropiles and other foundation elements for the construction of a new 70-story residential development in lower Manhattan. The site is outboard of the historic shoreline of Manhattan, providing difficult geotechnical conditions that were overcome to install the foundation elements. An aggressive construction schedule required HB to mobilize multiple pieces of equipment, which were safely operated in close proximity to each other and to other contractor’s equipment. This case history will have particular focus on the design, installation, and load testing of 610 mm diameter macropiles that were over 30 m long and socketed into bedrock.
