Lessons Learned

Helical Pile foundations are suitable for

undesirable soil conditions and rehabilitation

projects.

Historic structures can be adapted to

modern uses using sensitive stabilization

methods.

The integration of geotechnical, structural,

and preservation engineering is a useful tool

in rehabilitation projects for existing

infrastructure.
