Deep caissons support river-side power plant
Building of Williamsburg station of Pennsylvania Edison Co is carried on concrete footings bearing on firm clay about 10 ft below grade; borings made for extension to plant showed that shale underlying firm clay fell away rapidly on new site; foundations were extended by drilling through boulders and shale into rock; 16 drilled-in caissons were installed for support of 6 columns and 100 lin ft of wall.
