PROJECT
OVERVIEW:
Contracted to remove and replace old seawall. This included the removal of
old test piles, existing wood decks and an old concrete wall and
installation of new sheet pile wall with waler and tiebacks.
Additionally, removed old guardrails from the existing structures,
stored the railing onsite and re-installed on the new structures.
UNIQUE
SOLUTIONS:
Removal
of old concrete wall was problematic.
We needed to clear a minimum of 24 inches for the installation of the
new sheet pile wall. The existing concrete wall ranged in thickness from 24’
to 52”. To solve the problem an
excavator, equipped with a breaker, was used to break away the wall in areas
where the thickness was greater than 24 inches.
