Betts has been drilling the i-85 and i-400 project for quite some time now as it is a job that keeps on giving which of course is everyone’s favorite kind. We have been providing geotechnical drilling mainly with ATV rigs for about two years. The work has been split by our Atlanta office’s crews and our Adel crews. Catching a nice view like this one on break makes the hard work worthwhile.
This picture was taken in the greater Atlanta area on a geotechnical site. The project was to test the roof surface of the building for the base of a large billboard that was constructed on top of the building. Pictured is a crane that was brought to lift one of our Geoprobe 7822’s on to the rooftop for drilling. This was a bit of a unique day for one of our crews.
Betts Environmental spent about eight months in Savannah, Georgia drilling geotechnical SPT borings in the area where i-16 and i-95 intersect. This project was for the future improvement of this intersection’s safety and traffic efficiency. We had a mixture of crews on site throughout the duration of this project including geoprobe, ATV and excavator clearing crews. Our crews and project managers worked day and night over the eight month period this job endured.
