Reviewed construction activities and the contractor’s continual efforts to maintain the construction site in accordance with the SWPPP. ° NYCDDG 114 Precinct. This fast-track project required the underpinning of the active police station while drainage and sewer improvements were constructed. Excavations required sheeting, shoring and bracing and the foundations required subgrade inspections prior concrete placement and backfill compaction tests. The DDC Owner's representative consulted with JPCL on interpretation of their specification and the code. ° Coney Island Micro-piles. This underground utility installation Project required the installation of approximately fifty 60-foot-deep micro-piles. Oversite of inspection that verified pile and grout materials, depth of installation and grout strength. Our presence on site permitted immediate feedback to the contractor that their procedures and the installation were code and specification compliant. ¢ Astoria Boulevard MTA Station Improvements. This 12-month project completely shut down the Astoria Boulevard train station while train through-traffic was still maintained. On-site safety requirements included MTA Track safety training. Supervised inspections including underpinning, new pile installations, sheeting shoring and bracing, backfill compaction, foundations, welding, bolting and cast-in-place concrete. Work at this site is on-going. ¢ Edenwald YMCA, Bronx NY. JPCL was provided the geotechnical report and was asked to provide the contractor with construction quality assurance of this subgrade excavation, The excavation spoils were reviewed against the nearest soil boring, and the strata verified upon which the building footing foundation would be constructed. In some instances, over-excavation of unsuitable material and gravel replacement was required to complete the subgrade preparation. Coordination with the contractor enabled construction to progress in conformance with the specifications and without incident. ° NYC DDC for NYC DEP 26th Ward WWTP.
