Project Overview

Three Months Gained. One Relentless Partner.

On the UCSD Ridge Walk North project, time was critical—and PS=Ø delivered. By eliminating pour strips and the constraints of traditional methods, our system accelerated the schedule by a full 3 months, helping the team stay ahead of key milestones.

The impact extended beyond the timeline. With fewer safety risks, cleaner site logistics, and improved workflow, PS=Ø helped the Hensel Phelps team build smarter, faster, and more efficiently. And through it all, our team was there—from engineering support to field integration.

Nick Muntean, Superintendent at Hensel Phelps, put it best: "PS=Ø delivers real results – cutting costs, accelerating schedule, and improving safety—but what truly sets PS=Ø apart is their team: bold innovators and relentless partners who support your project from start to finish."

Ridge Walk North stands as a strong example of what's possible when innovation meets execution—Zero Compromise.
