Building from the Ground Up: How General Contractors Can Reduce Risk and Keep Projects Moving with Ground Improvement Solutions

Unexpected subsurface conditions can derail even the best-planned projects\, creating redesigns\, schedule delays\, budget pressure\, and field complications that impact the entire team.

For general contractors\, engineers\, and project stakeholders\, selecting the right ground improvement or deep foundation solution early in the process can significantly reduce downstream risk and improve project certainty.

Hosted by ABC Greater Tennessee\, this session explores how solutions such as aggregate piers\, rigid inclusions\, and helical piers are being used to address challenging soil conditions while helping project teams maintain schedules\, improve constructability\, and avoid costly foundation changes later in the project lifecycle.

Led by Alec Lanzini\, Vice President of Operations at CNC Foundations\, attendees will gain practical insight into how various ground improvement and foundation support systems can support smarter preconstruction decisions and more efficient field execution.

What You'\;ll Learn

Who Should Attend

Introduced by Marty McLeary\, CNC Business Development Manager serving Tennessee\, Western Kentucky\, and Northern Alabama\, with regional perspective on upcoming market opportunities and project trends.

Whether you'\;re evaluating a site in preconstruction\, designing foundation systems\, or actively managing difficult field conditions\, this session provides practical strategies to help your team reduce uncertainty and keep projects advancing with confidence.
