Deep foundations
Installing structural elements in weak soils to transfer loads.
Located in Walnut Creek, our San Francisco office is a key part of Keller’s California operations, delivering expert design-build geotechnical solutions across the Bay Area and beyond. Our team brings deep technical knowledge and local experience to every project, tackling sites with seismic hazards, historic fills, Bay mud, alluvial deposits, and strong ground motions.
Installing structural elements in weak soils to transfer loads.
Treating soils to support buildings or withstand loads.
Retaining earth successfully so that it does not move or shift to any unwanted directions.
Keller received the 2021-2022 CalGeo Outstanding Project Award (Geo-Contractor Category) for the Alameda Marina Ground Improvement and Shoreline Stabilization project. In this project, we used deep and mass soil mixing to enhance shoreline seismic stability and support new foundations along the Oakland Estuary.
San Francisco office employee, Conner Sudol, is the Events Coordinator for the Geo-Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers' San Francisco chapter.
