One of our clients in Houston, Texas came to us with a specific request: install large caissons without steel reinforcing in order to avoid interference with the products being tested within the structures. We provided the client with multiple caisson designs that utilized fiberglass-reinforced concrete. We designed these structures to be poured in lifts and sunk into the earth until the cutting edge of the caisson reached the design elevation.
Stiver Engineering provided structural plans to the client for construction.
