Clarksburg Postal Facility

Since construction of the United States Postal Service sorting facility in Clarksburg, WV, the building has experienced ongoing differential settlement. As a result, damage occurred within the building. The damage was limited to cosmetic items such as cracks in the drywall, misaligned door frames, and cracks in the floor. To mitigate the ongoing settlement, a frac grouting program was specified as the method of treatment for the soils beneath the facility. ACT was the Prequalified Grouting Contractor awarded the contract for the frac grouting project.
