Bridge Projects – Design & Construction Administration
- Old Marlborough Road over Charcoal Brook, Dublin NH – Assisted with the environmental permitting, design, and construction administration services of an emergency bridge replacement. Flooding in April 2007 caused undermining of the 8x12-foot corrugated metal pipe arch, resulting in collapse of the culvert and roadway failure. The replacement bridge was a concrete box structure with streambed material in the invert. Project required close coordination with the Town of Dublin, FEMA, NHDOT, and NHDES.
- Pedestrian Bridge over Baboosic Brook – Twin Bridges Park, Merrimack, NH – Assisted with the environmental permitting, design and construction administration services of a new single span 70 foot pre-engineered steel truss pedestrian bridge. The new bridge is replacing a heavily damaged double concrete arch bridge that experienced severe undermining of its north abutment during the May 2006 flood, leaving no other reasonable option for repair. The new structure will be founded on new concrete abutments located on the banks to provide greater waterway clearance and hydraulic capacity.
- Bridge Capital Improvement Plan, Dublin NH – The Bridge CIP was performed to assist the Town in evaluating bridge replacement and repairs for 16 bridges, and to provide a planning tool for funding. A bridge CIP Worksheet was developed to forecast funding requirements, as well as spread the necessary expenditures over a period of years to minimize peaks in tax rate increases, while still addressing critical bridge issues.
- White Birch Point Road over Great Brook, Antrim NH - Assisted with the environmental permitting, design and construction administration services of a new 30-degree skewed precast concrete bridge (20–foot approximate bridge span, 16-foot hydraulic span) on a new alignment immediately downstream of the existing damaged corrugated metal arch culvert and roadway. The existing corrugated metal arch culvert was damaged during the October 2005 rain event that caused a total breach of the roadway embankment and dry laid stone culvert headwalls leaving a gorge where the roadway had been.
- Waste Systems International, Inc., Oxford, MA – Teamed to provide complete design for a 1,000 ton per day solid waste processing facility. Project features included a 12,000 SF Transfer Building, an 8,500 SF Office and Vehicle Maintenance Building, digital truck scale and scale house, above grade 32,000 gallon water storage tank with diesel power fired suppression/pumping system, outdoor truck heater system, site drainage detention pond, and an 800' long, 20' high serpentine modular masonry retaining wall supported with geotextile grid. The Transfer Building was fully sprinklered, and had a 40' clear height under the roof framing with 25' high reinforced concrete walls, a drive-though truck loading pit with a structural steel funnel, and a sacrificial concrete wearing slab. All project structures were designed and constructed with pre-engineerd buildings.
- Salt Storage Buildngs, Depatment of Adminstrative Services, Bureau of Public Works, Enfield, Ashland, and Thornton, NH – Provided structural engineering services associated with the design and construction of three NHDOT Salt Storage Buildings. Work for each building included assisting the BPW in preparing bid specifications, reviewing each site location and available data to determine structural design criteria per IBC 2005, and review of the geotechnical reports. Construction adminsitration services included the review of shop drawings, structural calculations, and material submittals. Site visits for construction observation were preformed for each site.
- Charles E. Holt and Robert H. Foster Rinks Additions and Renovations, Dover, NH – Teamed to provide complete design that included a new "Connector" building of 7,200 SF, a new pre-engineered building of 30,000 SF, and the renovation of the existing 25,000 SF rink. Project challenges included constructing the new building while the existing rink remained in use. Renovations to the existing rink occured during the Spring of the following year, and included a new metal roof and siding, a new CMU exterior wall, new lighting fixtures, and mechanical system upgrades. A newly constructed entry facilitated controlled access to each rink area, common areas, and administration offices. This project was delivered as a design/build project.
- Upham Walker Building, NH Department of Administrtive Services, Bureau of Public Works, Concord, NH – Provided a visual assessment of a historic post and beam wook framed structure that had suffered severe water intrusion and insect damage. A report with recommendations for structural repairs was prepared, and sketches outlining the proposed scope of work were submitted to the BPW to solicit bids from Contractors. Site visits were performed to assist the Contractor during the repair process, and Field Observation Reports were written for the BPW, documenting the means and methods of repairs.
- NH Veterans' Home, New Hampshire Deparment of Administrtive Services, Bureau of Public Works, Concord, NH – Assisted the Department in structural reparis to the recreation room. In October 2005, following several days of extremely heavy rain, a steel column in the recreation room, along iwththe slab and interior masonry partition wall were noted to have settled. QCC performed civil and structural engineering services associated with the design of building repairs, and provided Contract Drawing.
