“The efforts and expertise of Portadam and Rain for Rent was an important factor in helping us complete this project– despite challenging environmental conditions.” –Brent Hunt, Skanska Project Manager
PROBLEM:
Coordinated efforts were required to meet the demands of a multiple phase project during a bridge reconstruction over Huguenot River road. There were also extremely volatile flow conditions with very rocky and irregular subsurface conditions that required a four phase dewatering project.
SOLUTION:
Portadam provided a 10’ high system, diversion dams, fabric wraps, extra bracing equipment and unique fabric materials. Rain for Rent provided settling tanks to meet strict environmental regulations and a variety of pump capacities. Both companies were intricately involved in daily scheduling and planning meetings –to allow for proper contractor coordination.
RESULT:
As a result of these highly coordinated efforts, Portadam & Rain for Rent’s safe, fast and effective implementation allowed the successful completion of all four phases despite overwhelming site conditions.
- Bridge reconstruction over Huguenot River road.
- Extremely volatile flow conditions with very rocky and irregular subsurface conditions.
- Four phase dewatering project to allow the construction of four bridge piers. Coordinated efforts required to meet the demands of a multiple phase project.
