Amtrak Platforms
Amtrak Platforms were reconstructed in 5 stations by adding concrete platforms. This created safer and more convenient loading and unloading area for pedestrians. Original plans called for drilled concrete piers. Drilled concrete piers could not be utilized due to contaminated soils, live tracks and limited overhead access. Helical piles were use to overcome these issues. Helcial piles can be used in low overhead areas and wont produce drill spoils. Small equipment and crews are needed for helical pile installations.
