Velocity Construction- Difficult Dirt Installation- No Problem!


Velocity Construction does another job that nobody thought could be done!- 
We were warned that this dirt installation would not be "possible" because the walls in the stem wall were the "blow out" kind- an unusual specification since the walls were below grade. This means the  walls were fragile, and easily moved and damaged. We were successful in installing the 400+ yards of dirt, meeting our compaction tests, and not filling the wall with dirt!
