In constructing foundation of building for Dept of Water Supply, Detroit, Mich, unusual soil conditions were encountered which involved tough upper earth stratum over thick substratum of soft clay and boulders; piles shifted and subsided, ground heaved more than piles could have displaced it, and core holes moved without distortion; conditions overcome by use of "projectile pile," but causes remain partly unexplained.
