Columbia Business Center East Slip Bulkhead Wall

Services Rendered: Pile Driving

Project Description

This emergency rebuild was fully completed in three weeks, with a substantial completion in just one week. The rebuild was necessary to replace the failing existing bulkhead. The bulkhead wall was to be utilized to load the new Hood Canal Bridge Sections. There were no other options to load these one-million pound bridge spans that were scheduled to load out at the only usable barge load out facility in the Columbia Business Center. AAC was given the notice to proceed on a Friday evening at 7 pm. AAC mobilized all equipment and materials over the weekend and started driving sheet pile by Monday morning. AAC used one crane barge and one land based crawler crane to install the piles. The job involved the demolition of existing wing wall piling and pre-cast concrete panels. AAC installed 250 linear feet of sheet pile bulkhead wall, and 38 deadman piling, 18 tiebacks, 125-linear feet concrete bulkhead cap beam, and 2 24” marker piling.
