Project: Rickwood Field

Rickwood Field

Job Overview

A.G Gaston was building new dugouts at the Rickwood field stadium to host major league baseball this up coming season. With doing this job A.G. Gaston needed a way to retain the dirt underneath the pre-existing stadium.

1. The Approach

Installation of H-Piles and Timber Lagging for earth retention and structural support.

2. The Solution

Russo mobilized a low-headroom drill to install 30-inch diameter shafts. H-Pile Beams were set in place and the shafts were backfilled with flowable fill to the specified elevation. Once the fill had cured, excavation proceeded in 4-foot lifts, with 3-inch Hardwood Lagging installed between the Piles for effective earth retention.
