REINFORCED WITH
An American First!
Super Excavators’ Black Snake Stormwater Tunnel,
Missouri, is the first North American Tunnel to incorporate
a 100% Macro Synthetic Fiber Reinforced Segmental
Lining.
They said it couldn’t be done. They said you can’t use macro synthetic fibre
to replace steel in concrete and shotcrete. With the help of our innovative
construction partners, we’ve proven that it can be.
BarChip concrete fiber continues to lead the way in the North American
Tunnelling Market.
2007 - First MSF Shotcrete Lining - BarChip Reinforced Devil’s Slide Tunnel, California.
2014 - First MSF Cast In Place Lining - BarChip Reinforced Euclid Creek Tunnel, Ohio.
2017 - First MSF Rail Track Slab - BarChip Reinforced MTA, New York City.

Applied Innovation. Proven Solutions.
Everyone knows that ground freezing succeeds in extremely difficult soil conditions where other excavation
support methods are not feasible. Everyone also knows that soil freezing is one of only a handful of shoring
methods can eliminate groundwater infiltration. But did you also know advancements in freeze technology
and refinements in our freeze equipment has made SoilFreeze more mobile, versatile, and more cost effi-
cient than ever before? And that soil freezing is extremely eco-conscious?
So why wait for the worst soil conditions? Ground freezing can solve any ground support requirements and
eliminate dewatering at the same time. SoilFreeze is a leading provider of efficient, environmentally friend-
ly ground freezing solutions. Installations can be designed, installed, and maintained for projects lasting a
few weeks, or for several years. We serve both the private and public sectors and have a substantial list of
successful projects and clients.
