Leaders in Ground Improvement, Soil Reinforcement and Deep Foundations Field
MRD LLC is a Puerto Rico-based geotechnical contractor founded in 2005 and headquartered in Manati. Owned and operated by civil engineers with more than 20 years of experience, MRD specializes in design-build solutions for challenging geo-structural conditions across Puerto Rico, its municipalities, and neighboring Caribbean islands including Trinidad and Tobago. It delivers cost-effective, technically sound engineered solutions from early design through construction execution in ground improvement, deep foundations, soil reinforcement, excavation shoring, slope stabilization, and related geotechnical work. MRD has established strategic alliances with Tensar International, Geopier, International Construction Equipment (ICE), Rev-Drill, and International Drilling Equipment (IDE).
Design-build installation of drilled shafts and piles for building and infrastructure foundations.
Cased or uncased shaft installations with diameters ranging from 18 to 96 inches.
CFA pile installations with diameters ranging from 14 to 30 inches for deep structural support.
High-capacity, small-diameter drilled and grouted piles used for structural support in restricted access areas or difficult ground conditions.
Installation of steel H-piles and pipe piles using advanced vibratory hammer systems.
Specialized foundation support systems designed to expand soil-pile contact area for increased load-bearing capability.
Engineered solutions for stabilizing soft, weak, or liquefiable soils to support shallow foundations.
Proprietary rammed aggregate pier solutions designed to reinforce poor soils and control settlement under structural loads.
Geotechnical stabilization methods designed to prevent soil strength loss during seismic events.
Geosynthetic and geogrid systems deployed to reinforce subgrades and stabilize slopes, retaining structures, or pavements.
Integration of advanced geogrid technology to enhance load-bearing capacity and subgrade stabilization.
Geogrid solutions designed primarily for high-strength reinforcement in retaining walls and steep slopes.
Multi-directional stabilization systems utilized to distribute heavy loads across pavements and weak subgrades.
Advanced geogrid solutions designed to optimize aggregate confinement and enhance pavement performance.
Temporary and permanent retention structures designed to stabilize vertical cuts and protect adjacent properties during deep excavations.
Overlapping concrete pile walls providing both structural support and groundwater cutoff.
Closely spaced concrete pile walls utilized for soil retention when groundwater control is not primary.
Classic earth retention systems utilizing vertical steel beams and horizontal timber lagging.
In-situ reinforcement technique using steel tendons grouted into pre-drilled holes to stabilize steep slopes or excavations.
Interlocking steel sheet driving for continuous earth retention and water exclusion.
High-velocity fluid injection to erode and mix soil with cement slurry, creating high-strength underground grout columns.
Geosynthetic and geogrid-reinforced methods to address unstable slopes, riverbanks, and roadside embankments, including landslide remediation.
Specialized slope repairs and erosion control measures along waterways and transportation corridors.
Mechanically stabilized earth structures engineered for transportation, commercial, and infrastructure applications using modular block or welded wire basket systems.
Interlocking modular blocks combined with geogrid reinforcement for durable and aesthetic retaining structures.
Steel wire basket structures filled with stone or vegetated soil for rapid, flexible retaining walls.
Provision of specialized heavy construction equipment with operators or as bare rentals for foundation projects.
Provision of heavy-duty drilling mast systems for vertical drilling and pile installations.
Rental of high-power vibratory hammers designed for driving steel sheet piles, H-piles, and casing.
Distribution of advanced civil engineering geotextiles and geogrid stabilization products throughout the Caribbean region.
Local supply of uniaxial, biaxial, triaxial, and InterAx geogrids and engineered geotextiles.
