El Paso County Water Improvement District (EPCWID), a Public Irrigation District in El Paso County, selected a DuroMaxx® steel reinforced polyethylene (SRPE) structure as the best solution to carry a canal under an access road. It was decided that the DuroMaxx pipe would provide more durability in the higher alkaline waters.
When a new pedestrian crossing was needed to span the lake at the new 70-acre Scissortail Park in downtown Oklahoma City, a Continental® Pedestrian Truss was selected as the best solution.
In order to provide pedestrians with safe passage under busy Fleur Drive and access to nearby attractions, a CON/SPAN® B-Series Bridge System placed on EXPRESS® Foundations for its ability to provide an expedited installation.
The Market Street project involved removing and replacing existing catch basins with Filterra® Bioretention Systems that capture and remove stormwater pollutants such as trash and debris, oils and grease, sediments, nutrients, and metals.
The Case for Lightweight Fills in Reline Applications
Relining existing pipes and culverts is becoming an increasingly popular means of addressing aging utilities. The advantages of sliplining include the following:
Minimal disruption of traffic
Cost-effective in many cases when compared to replacement
Designing Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs) with Maintenance in Mind - Part 1: Factors That Drive MTD Maintenance Costs
Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs) are similar to non-proprietary stormwater BMPs in that they must be maintained so they perform as intended. However, the majority of effort and focus are typically placed upon the initial design and construction of stormwater treatment facilities, with little thought as to how these systems will be maintained long term. In all cases, the property owner is left responsible for the consequences of decisions made by others during the design and construction phases, nearly all of whom have moved on to new projects once the construction phase of the project is terminated.
In our profession, effective collaboration is essential, especially now that there are 5 generations working side by side. In this episode of ASCE Interchange, Muhammad Elgammal discusses how to lead in a multi-generational workplace.
