Belled caissons anchor walls as Michigan remodels expressway
Detroit's James Couzens Highway will be converted into fully depressed expressway in center of 204-ft wide existing right of way; roadway will be 106-ft wide with shoulder and flanking 30-ft wide service roads at grade will partly cantilever over new roadway; 4-mi of retaining walls were constructed by applying 20-in. diam tie back caissons spaced from 11 to 18 ft; excessive pull-out testing indicated use of such caissons.
