Project Spotlights

Spelman Underpinning

Spelman College Foundation Stabilization

Atlas Piers stabilized the foundation of historic Spelman College, founded in 1881. Working on a structure more than a century old required precise planning to reinforce aging foundation conditions while preserving the integrity of the building.

Bentonville, AR Boardwalk

Atlas Piers installed a boardwalk foundation for a private residence in an environmentally sensitive area with an active beaver habitat. Using floating excavators and a Marsh Master, helical piers were installed without disturbing the dam or surrounding wildlife—eliminating the need for concrete while providing a stable, long-lasting foundation.

Jacksonville Post Office Mezzanine

Atlas Piers reinforced the Jacksonville Post Office’s foundation to support a new mezzanine by doubling the capacity of the columns. Their solution, directly attaching the pile to the footing, increased load capacity from 300,000 to 600,000 pounds, setting a new record for high-capacity micropiles.
