Fort Henry Reconstruction – Phase 2: Beginning the week of July 1st, TMS Construction will begin preparations and saw cutting for the upcoming reconstruction project on Fort Henry Drive. The removal of the existing roadway and reconstruction will begin the week of July 8th. Crews will begin work on the Amsterdam end of Fort Henry near Glengarry that week. A faster setting concrete mix will be used near this intersection so work in this area can be completed before school begins. While each concrete pour cures near the Glengarry intersection crews will work between Pickett Drive and General Drive. Access will be maintained to Glengarry Drive during construction; however, delays can be expected. We thank you for your patience as we complete the final phase of this project.

Why Pile are Crucial in Bridge Construction?

Why Piles are Crucial in Bridge Construction 🌉 Building a bridge is not just about spanning a gap; it’s about connecting lives. But, before the architectural marvel unfolds, there’s an unseen hero that lays the groundwork – the Piles. Piles are the deep foundations that transfer the load of a bridge to the firmer soil layers or bedrock beneath. They are essential, especially when the surface soil lacks the strength to support the structure’s weight. Without these robust pillars, bridges could not withstand the variable loads they encounter daily. 🎥 In this video, we delve into one of the many types of piles used in bridge construction. These particular piles are designed to channel the massive weight of the bridge down into the earth’s more supportive layers. It’s a process that ensures stability and longevity, crucial for any structure that bridges both land and lives. As an engineer, observing these piles being driven into the ground is witnessing the birth of a bridge’s strength. It’s where engineering meets the earth, ensuring that the bridge, once complete, will stand firm for decades. ✨ Piles may not be visible in the final structure, but their presence is what makes each journey across a bridge safe and reliable. They are the unsung heroes of bridge engineering – the foundation of our journeys and the pillars of safety in our travels. 👀 Watch the video to see how these engineering marvels are installed and appreciate the unseen work that goes into the bridges we use every day. 📹 B.G.

"Revolutionizing Construction: The Innovative Trolley Behind the La Pesa Viaduct" The winged trolley is an auxiliary means of construction that had not been used in Panama until now, which is a significant development in the region. The La Pesa viaduct in La Chorrera marks a milestone in Panamanian construction as it uses a unique construction method by Grupo Puentes. This 1,750 m long viaduct is part of a project to rehabilitate and widen 5 km of the Pan-American Highway, featuring 6 lanes for long-distance travel and 4 local lanes underneath. The construction method involves two phases: the first phase uses portal formwork to execute the core section, while the second phase employs a specialized trolley for the cantilevers and slab. Among other advantages, it acts as a collective protection measure to prevent workers from falling to different levels and minimizes the impact on traffic during the construction phase by not having to interrupt the passage of vehicles underneath it. This method allows progress to be made with a yield of 3 sections of 12m in length each week once the trolley reaches optimum performance. The La Chorrera Viaduct is divided into 41 spans with an average length of 43 m each, a total deck width of 26.50 m and a constant 3.50 m edge. At the head of the piers there are pendular bearings, which absorb seismic loads with better results than conventional neoprene bearings.

We are excited to welcome all of you at the 1st Public Open House for the newly launched Preliminary Design Engineering project of The Dakota County: CP 54-011 – CSAH 54 Expansion from the Intersection of CSAH 54/18th ST. East to CSAH 68 (200th ST. East) and to construct a roundabout at the intersection of CSAH 54/68 in Ravenna Township, Minnesota state of US. The project website page has been created: County Road 54 (Ravenna Trail) Reconstruction, Ravenna Township | Dakota County A bird’s eye view of the project statistics is as below: Project Name: CP 54-011: County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 54 expansion from the Intersection of CSAH54/18th Street East in Hastings City to CSAH 68 (200th Street E) and to construct a roundabout at the intersection of CSAH 54 and CSAH 68 in Ravenna Township. Project Location: From the intersection of CSAH 54/18th St East (Ravenna Trail) in Hastings City to intersection of CSAH 54/68 Project Goals 1. To improve safety and mobility along the corridor and provide capacity for future traffic that will support the economic competitiveness of the Prairie Island Indian Community. Prairie Island is home to two large employers — Treasure Island Resort and Casino and Prairie Island Nuclear Plant. 2. To complete a Mississippi River Greenway Trail connection to Prairie Island. 3. To improve the intersection operations by constructing a roundabout at CSAH 54 / 68 intersection in Ravenna township thus providing more safety for increased traffic levels. 4. To complete an archaeology survey as determined by the respective environmental document for the CSAH 54 corridor, as needed, within the project timelines. 5. To integrate the design in coordination with the current planning in progress of the development of a sanitary sewer treatment plant by City of Hastings. 6. To maintain/improve the natural resources – plant and animal studies along the corridor. 7. Provide a geometric design that includes: a) Minimization of near term & long-term construction and right of way costs. b) Rural design allowing for potential use of storm water infiltration/treatment. c) The design shall meet current access spacing guidelines along the corridor. d) Provide grade separated crossing for Regional Greenway that will connect into future new developments along the corridor. e) 55 mph design speed for CSAH 54. f) Evaluation of the existing drainage structures and their improvements considering the surrounding flood plains. g) Adequate sight lines at all intersections.

Why is there no trillion dollar construction companies? I’m by no means qualified to answer the above question but I’ve got some thoughts around it. Valuations lean towards companies easy to scale. Construction is notoriously hard. There is also no economies of scale in construction… instead it is the opposite. The reason I ask is because this might be one of the drivers behind why there is such a shortage of workers and people entering the industry. Tech companies are worth more than construction, the work in tech is perceived to be easier also. More money for easier work. I don’t have the answer but I do have a photo of an almost finished basement excavation. 12 metres in the deepest spot.
