Foundation Specialties

Foundation Specialties Geostructural Construction is a design-build deep foundations and support of excavation contractor, listed at 4 Shackleford Plaza in Little Rock, Arkansas. Its website says it has operated since 1989 and maintains an office in Northwest Arkansas.

The company began by underpinning homes and light commercial structures and now lists micropiles, helical piles, ductile iron pipe piles, ground and rock anchors, structural underpinning, soil nails, tiebacks and ground improvement. It says it maintains drills, grout plants and load test equipment, and publishes case studies and technical briefings.

To discuss a project, call 479-927-0364 or email through the site. Ask which pile system is proposed for your load and soil conditions, who stamps the design, and how load testing is handled. Whatever the company, ask for a written scope that names the pile type, quantity, planned depth and torque target, so quotes can be compared line by line.
