Big bell-bottom caissons will support Detroit's second civic center building
Loads of new 15 to 20-story building will be transmitted by cast-in-place concrete caissons to conglomerate hardpan down to 115 ft below street level; diameters of caissons are belled out at bottom on 1 on 2 slope; allowable bearing pressures are determined with "Penetrometer"; 2 in. steel caisson casings are retracted as hole is filled with concrete.
