The city of Phoenix, Gannett Fleming and DNG Construction have been working to replace a below-grade exhibition hall shoring wall for the Phoenix Convention Center. The narrow workspace lies between the convention center and an active light rail track. The project employs innovative design and excavation techniques to install tie-backs and remove soil to a depth of 45 ft below street level without disturbing adjacent structures.
