Scope of Work
Wayne Brothers’ Geostructural Solutions group designed and installed a temporary earth retention system for the Cama Street Mixed-Use development. The selected system — a soldier pile and lagging wall — ensured safe foundation excavations next to existing structures and access roadways. The Sitework + Utilities team supported the project with sitework, excavation, storm drainage, utility installation, and an underground detention system to manage stormwater.
Unique Challenges
The need for earth retention emerged as foundation excavation began, requiring an immediate response. Within one week, our team produced design submittals and mobilized on site to install the wall. Working within a tight urban footprint surrounded by existing buildings on three sides created logistical challenges for excavation, hauling, and site balancing. Careful planning and precise surveying were critical for installing the underground detention system, which required a crane to set components accurately in limited space.
