Foundation question: Would you consider slap foundation designs in an area that consists of 2-3' of top soil followed by approx 13' of brown transitioning to gray loose to very loose poorly graded sand with traces of silt and shells followed by 39' of very loose poorly graded sand and organic silt on top of bedrock consisting mainly of limestone or would you use pilings?

 

Im project manager / estimator for a large commercial contractor. You guys from Florida may have heard of the company, Graham Construction. We build hotels and large conventions centers. We have 18 hotels under contract right now, most of them are in FL.

 

I'm the Dir. of Pricing and Procurement for a residential/commercial builder. Also manage the warranty team and team leader focusing primarily on customer service.

 

You can float a slab on this material, if the live load of the building is not too great. It has been done.

To be conservative, friction piles or bedrock piles would be the norm for soils like those you describe.

 

Wow, my job sucks compared to all of you guys. I do accounting for the US 7-Eleven chain. I am also back in school pursuing my IT degree at 37 years old. I am A+ certified and N+ & MCSE trained (not cert). I have to get out of customer service before I end up on CNN. lol

 

Looking at other alternatives besides pilings naturally for price points however you too sir have confirmed what most have in regards to pile construction.

Thanks
