601 ft long 280 ft wide bazaar building in Riviera Beach, Fla, rests on loose sands compacted by vibroflotation; soil borings indicated surface condition of loose, wind deposited sand underlain by denser sand; soil was compacted by 590 compactions to 14 ft depth and minimum density of 60%; 2 to 3 cu yd of fill were added at each compaction location; 225 ft high observation tower is supported on 42 concrete filled piles.
