Ground Freezing

RCS Group of Companies and its partners offer ground freezing services for a broad range of industries.  Ground freezing (also known as soil freezing) is a comprehensive alternative to other shoring methods and is especially applicable for projects involving soil nailing, soldier piles and lagging, sheet piles, caissons, slurry walls, or secant piles.  Many of these methods are not feasible or can have marginal success in difficult soil conditions but ground freezing can handle the most difficult soil conditions with great results.
