In the Lynchburg Renewables project, Dorado Construction Group contracted A.H. Beck for ground improvement to support seven tanks at a renewable fuel plant. A.H. Beck installed 1694 rigid inclusions, 16 inches in diameter, reaching depths between 10 and 30 feet into karst limestone. They also designed a load transfer platform between the inclusions and tank slab. Two high strain dynamic tests were completed prior to production installation to prove the engineering design capacities.
