Before a deteriorating bridge from the 1930s could be removed in downtown St. Louis, project designers had to devise a way to fill in the 30 ft deep excavation beneath the ground-level structure without imposing lateral loads on adjacent buildings. The novel solution involved using blocks of lightweight expanded polystyrene near the buildings and traditional soil fill within the rest of the excavation.
