The Serb Project
Submitted by Deane Hudson, Johnson
Western Gunite Company, San Leandro, CA.
Job Date:
November 2006 to December 2007
In Briones, California, more precisely
northeast of Orinda in the East Bay, the initial project was already
started by the customer. A soldier pile designed retaining wall was
being constructed by infilling between I-beams with cast-in-place
concrete.

After suggesting a more artistically pleasing design for
the retaining wall with the use of shotcrete and rock carving to hide the
exposed I-beams, Johnson Western Gunite installed 6200 square feet of rock
carved shotcrete. The customer later decided to have the basement foundation
walls of his house designed with shotcrete. The house basement now has 12 feet
tall shotcrete walls, and a 36 foot tall x 24 feet in diameter shotcrete
turret.
