P+F Construction的动态

Caltrans District 11 has awarded the Coronado Bay Bridge Suicide Deterrent Project to the Myers-Traylor Joint Venture in partnership with COWI+TYLin. GPA Consulting is pleased to join this team, assisting with biological resources and historic preservation planning services. This $127.8 million project—the first Progressive Design-Build procured and awarded in California—addresses a pressing public health crisis, as the Coronado Bay Bridge has the second-highest number of suicides among bridges in the United States. Approximately 400 lives have been lost since its opening in 1969. The project will involve constructing a vertical?8- to 10-foot-tall stainless-steel deterrent fence on both sides of the 2.18-mile-long structure. Additionally, superstructure bays beneath the bridge deck will be enclosed to facilitate future maintenance and inspections. Construction is expected to be completed by October 2028.? #caltrans #coronado #coronadobaybridge #sandiego #ProgressiveDesignBuild #civilinfrastructure #thinkmc?

This is terrible. I hope it's a wake up call for anyone designing and reviewing ponds with steep (and in this case, slippery) slopes with no littoral shelf. This is a wastewater pond and is likely enclosed by fencing, but it looks like a death trap if anyone is unlucky enough to fall into it. Poorly designed stormwater ponds can pose equally dangerous situations. Engineers: please, please....use flatter slopes; (flatter than the recommended 3:1 for SCMs); wide littoral shelves; reduced height embankments; but better yet, eliminate ponds altogether and use GSI!!! And for reviewers, administrators and elected officials, ask if there is another alternative than the standard pond. At a minimum, require the measures listed above. My prayers of comfort go to this family for this tragic, preventable loss?? https://lnkd.in/e-Fci4Dm

The Grenfell Tower tragedy stands as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of deregulation in fire safety. At Blazemark, we're committed to ensuring that fire safety is never compromised.?We must prioritize thorough planning to protect our communities from preventable disasters. #FireSafety #RiskManagement https://lnkd.in/dW6H_GPU

Phase II of the project will include the excavation of a regional detention pond and the installation of storm infrastructure that will benefit the Brennaaleen, Cedar, and Greenbriar subdivisions.

We all know, #aprilshowersbringmayflowers, or in Colorado's case, #snowshowers. But either way, for impervious areas like Denver, it also brings sediment and grease filled stormwater runoff. So here's to #civildesigners everywhere hoping their drainage and detention pond designs work as needed, #rain, #snow, or #shine. ???? ??? #civilengineeringworld

RIBA?responds to updated second staircase guidance published by the Government. From a safety perspective, there are clear benefits for multiple exit routes - and it's actually something we recently discussed with a client considering a second staircase on their project.

RIBA responds to updated second staircase guidance published by the Government. Recently, the subject of a second staircase came up in a client meeting - and there are certainly benefits from a safety perspective to ensuring multiple exit routes.
