Project Overview
The project consists of a mass excavation and shoring system for the basement of one of the largest subterranean/green roof dining halls on the east coast. This project includes dewatering using a well-point system and the use of H-beams and lagging for the shoring system. Erosion control, site grading, roof drains, storm sewer, bio-retention, site finishes, concrete curb and sidewalks, and hot mix paving are also part of the project.
- 10,000 CY of excavation
Key Challenges
- Cramped site conditions call for precise scheduling and mobilization of suppliers to get materials in and out.
- Consistent and heavy precipitation requires creative solutions and diligent oversight from both the project manager and site superintendent.
