Adjacent Structure Technical and Legal Risks
A tight urban excavation site
Construction Attorneys Gregory Meeder and James Chivilo co-authored an article in The Magazine of The Deep Foundations Institute discussing how excavation and heavy civil construction in urban environments directly impact abutters and existing adjacent structures. In their article, Mr. Meeder and Mr. Chivilo cover the legal and technical risks posed to adjacent structures that owners of new construction projects and their team must be aware of, such that the team is knowledgeable to navigate and allocate those risks.
