About Us
WHAT WE DO
For nearly 30 years, GTFC-West has specialized in the design and construction of the GeoRam® Design Engineered Aggregate Piers (EAP™) and GeoBase® Dynamic Subgrade Improvement.
These are efficient and cost-effective ground improvement/intermediate foundation solutions for the support of settlement sensitive structures in good to poor soils.
From 1995 through 2010, principles in the firm were instrumental in developing the analytical tools and construction techniques, and in gaining acceptance within the construction industry, for a patented
aggregate pier system of soil reinforcement and foundation support. When the patent for the original system expired in 2011, the company re-named itself to GeoTech Foundation Company - West and continues to serve the construction industry with design and construction of Engineered Aggregate Piers – the same pier system it has designed and constructed since 1995!
WHY CHOOSE US?
Our nearly 30 years of experience with Engineered Aggregate Pier (EAP) systems allows us to meet or exceed your engineering and performance specifications at a cost that is highly competitive.
We provide a true, 100% in-house, turnkey design/build package. Our engineers design every project, provide stamped design submittals for permitting, oversee field quality control, and furnish record drawings and data reports upon completion of pier installation.
OUR PLEDGE TO YOU
We will design and construct GeoFoundation Systems™ anywhere in the world for any project, large or small.
Our drilling and compacting equipment adapts readily to most track-mounted excavators, so in emergencies we can mobilize an experienced crew on short notice, and if necessary we can use excavators and operators of other Subcontractors that may already be on-site.
When one of the GeoFoundation Systems™ is appropriate for the project and site conditions, our company offers better foundation performance, reduced time on the construction schedule, and excellent cost savings.
