Description:
East Coast Slurry Company installed twelve drilled shaft foundations for a 15 story residential building in Boston’s Downtown Crossing area. The shafts were socketed ten feet into argillite bedrock and were located within a few feet of the MBTA’s Orange Line subway. Obstructions from the original Orange Line earth support system were encountered during drilling, but were successfully penetrated. Drilling into the bedrock was performed with a combination of bullet auger and core barrel.
