The City of Manzanita, Oregon reached a critical juncture in their emergency preparedness planning. The City Hall and the Police Station was in an outdated structure that would not withstand a "megathrust" from a Cascadia Subduction Zone Fault.
Since the building also serves as an emergency response center, the city acquired a new parcel and began the process of engineering a foundation that would support the building in the event of heavy seismic activity.
Because of our significant experience soil mixing in a variety of coastal areas, Pacific Foundation was selected as the drilling contractor for the project. For this project, our scope of work included 4' CDSM columns. Watch the video to learn more about the project and challenges encountered along the way!
