Since Provo's early years, a hill just northeast of downtown Provo was known as "Temple Hill." A series of eight-inch diameter micro-piles were drilled into the ground, on each side of the walls, to a depth of about 90 feet. The tower roofs were each removed as a single piece, and the one damaged tower was rehabilitated and rebuilt to its original configuration. The design of the interior bracing system needed to be compact and maximize working space for the contractor. Temple.). A new internal bracing system would also have to be engineered to stabilize the remaining brick walls while the temporary external bracing system that was installed soon after the fire was removed. With the foundation system complete, the focus shifted to a new structural steel superstructure inside the shell of the existing building. Connections between the base of the tower roofs and the walls below were improved to resist the required wind and earthquake loads. Our stone was given to us by a friend who worked on the temple project. With the masonry reinforced and strengthened, the next phase was to support the stabilized building shell so excavation could begin.
