A Client Success Story at the Bilmar Beach Resort in Treasure Island, FL

Hurricane Helene left its mark, but resilience and engineering brought this structure back stronger than ever.
 
What Happened:
Severe storm surge caused significant soil scouring at the northwest corner of the building, leading to foundation washout, perimeter wall failure, and collapse of the floating floor slab due to loss of support.
 
Our Solution:
✔️ Installed helical piles for deep foundation support
✔️ Placed flowable fill to restore structural integrity
✔️ Backfilled and compacted soil for stability
✔️ Reconstructed CMU wall system
✔️ Poured a new floating concrete floor slab
 
The Result:
A stabilized, reinforced structure built to withstand future coastal challenges. 💪
