The most sustainable foundation approach.
Proven performance without sacrificing environmental responsibility. Ground Frame designs are tailored to fit the unique landscape of your project, resulting in little to no soil or vegetation disturbance and no change to water flows or need for remediation. Additionally, the light-weight, strong timber and steel foundation takes the place of concrete, minimizing transport and installation emissions.
