Difficulties of foundation of nine-story bank building in Detroit, Mich, due to plastic fluid clay, sand pockets, deep bedrock, groundwater under pressure and presence of hydrogen sulphide gas were overcome by combination of steel H piles and drilled in caissons; layout and cross section show where pile clusters and caissons were installed and how cantilever beams transfer column loads to caissons.
