In large-scale multi-family housing projects, the foundation can make or break the budget—and the timeline. When Texas Pile was brought in to evaluate the foundation design for the San Marcos development, they didn’t just follow the recommended plan. Instead, they took a data-driven approach, testing different pile configurations to find the most efficient solution. What they discovered changed the entire project: traditional drilled shafts would have added $5.6 million in unnecessary costs and extended the project timeline by 16 weeks. By switching to a smarter driven pile solution, Texas Pile and Atlas Tube reduced the number of piles by 33%, optimized for the region’s challenging expansive clay soil, and kept the project on track. This isn’t just an engineering success story—it’s a case study in how innovation in foundation design can directly impact the bottom line. If you’re a developer, contractor, or structural engineer, this is a must-read. Discover the full details in our latest case study. ?? https://lnkd.in/edeSitNx

This Global Recycling Day, Zekelman Industries is proud to champion sustainable solutions that support a greener future. ???? We recognize that sustainability isn’t just about recycling—it’s about making smarter choices that minimize environmental impact while strengthening our communities. Steel is one of the world’s most recyclable materials, and by sourcing and manufacturing steel domestically, we reduce emissions, lower waste, and promote a circular economy. In fact, steel produced in North America contains 90% or more recycled content, cutting CO? emissions by 75% compared to traditional methods. We’re building a more sustainable tomorrow by investing in eco-conscious practices, responsible sourcing, and innovative manufacturing. Because when we choose to make products the right way, we make a difference. #GlobalRecyclingDay #GreenBlueprint #SustainableSteel #CircularEconomy #BuiltForTomorrow
