Saratoga Bridge
To retrofit this historically significant bridge, the State called in West Coast Drilling to thread 30″ & 36″ CIDH piles through the existing foundation and into bedrock. The piling work involved coring through 21′ of existing concrete, casing through native boulders & cobbles, and drilling a rock socket below. The piles required 50′ of permanent casing, which was extended to 60′ to insure shaft stability.
