Project Description:
The Orange County Sanitation Department required expansion due to the increasing population in the Los Angeles area.  Schnabel brought a full size micropile rig in to install micropiles inside an existing structure where previous designs called for auger cast piles.  Battered micropiles were installed to get around tight existing foundations to support the new effluent channel.
