The Underpinning of Heavy Buildings
This paper is a description of a novel method recently adopted for the support of heavy buildings. The first instance of which mention will be made is in connection with the foundation work for the Commercial Cable Building, twentyone stories high, at Broad and New Streets, New York City. The lot occupied by the new building is 45ft. wide on Broad Street and 55 ft. on New Street, and is 160ft. in length. The plan required an unusually deep excavation which was to contain two stories below the level of the street, the total depth from the sidewalk to the under side of the concrete floor being 30 ft. on Broad Street and 36ft. on New Street.
