Support Of Excavation

Strong Foundations Start with Deep Expertise

At Expedite Super Structure, we provide expert piling services designed to support structures in even the most challenging soil conditions. Whether you’re building on soft clay, near the coastline, or in densely developed urban zones, our piling solutions offer unmatched stability, load-bearing capacity, and long-term durability.

We serve clients throughout New York City and Long Island, offering deep foundation systems for both new construction and structural remediation.

Common SOE methods include:

  • Soldier Piles and Lagging: Vertical steel H-beams (soldier piles) are driven or drilled into the ground at regular intervals, with horizontal lagging (usually timber or precast concrete panels) inserted between them as excavation proceeds.

  • Sheet Piling: Interlocking steel sheets are driven vertically into the ground to form a continuous wall, ideal for tight urban sites or areas with high water tables.

  • Secant or Tangent Pile Walls: Overlapping (secant) or adjacent (tangent) drilled concrete piles create a rigid, watertight wall suitable for deep excavations and sites with poor soil conditions.

  • Soil Nailing: Steel bars are inserted into pre-drilled holes in the soil and grouted in place, often used in conjunction with shotcrete to stabilize slopes or vertical cuts.

Frequently asked questions

1. What is Support of Excavation (SOE)?
Support of Excavation (SOE) refers to temporary or permanent systems used to retain soil and control groundwater during construction activities involving excavation. These systems protect workers, adjacent structures, and the excavation itself from collapse or movement.
2. When is SOE required on a project?
SOE is typically required for excavations deeper than 4 to 5 feet, especially in urban areas or when excavations are close to existing buildings, roads, or underground utilities. Local codes and geotechnical reports usually determine the specific requirements.
3. What types of SOE systems are commonly used?
Common SOE systems include:

Soldier piles and lagging

Sheet piling

Secant or tangent pile walls

Soil nailing

Braced excavations and tieback anchors
