PROJECT NAME: STATE STREET
CONTRACTOR: TRAMMEL CROW RESIDENTIAL

The State Sreet Project was as diversified as any project in terms of multiple shoring systems utilized for project cost and performance benefits. Permanent Cantilever retaining walls up to 24' in height were utilized for the east property line. The Permanent structural shotcrete work was self performed by MDCI crews and installed in the top down method. Once completed, MDCI with the assistance of rock carving subcontractors installed the architectural Boulderscape work.
The north wall of the project utilized Soldier piles to resist the building loads distributed by neighboring structures. Temporary shotcrete was installed between the flanges by MDCI shotcrete crews to act as the lagging.
The Venis system was used on the south property line where utilities prevented the installation of soil nails in the upper most portions of the wall. The balance of the project was shored using both permanent and temporary soil nail construction to help mimimize project costs.
The State Street Project is a classic example of the capabilities of MDCI as a shoring contractor. Multiple tasks can be self performed in efforts to maximize production and minimize costs. |
