Building the Foundations of Brickell’s Tallest Tower: Deep Soil Mixing and CFA Piles at Cipriani Residences

Cipriani Residences will stand as Brickell’s tallest skyscraper at 950 feet above ground. Malcolm Drilling was entrusted with the design and installation of the deep foundations for this 84-story, nautical-inspired tower.

Malcolm Drilling performed initial site preparation and the removal of existing support of excavation systems. Deep soil mixing was completed at the tower to ensure a dry excavation for the tower mat slab. A temporary soil-mixed wall was installed around the excavation perimeter, allowing construction along the property lines.

CFA piles were value-engineered and drilled to depths exceeding 160 feet.
