Key Field Airplane Hangar

Meridian, MS

Geotechnical Engineer: Army Corps of Engineers

The Army Corps selected the Geopier rammed aggregate pier system with structural steel uplift anchors instead of traditional concrete piers or driven piles. Geopier uplift elements constructed in the very soft clay were designed to resist a maximum design uplift load from wind equal to 260 kips per column.  The tested uplift capacity at the Key Field site exceeded design by 10 tons.
