TGW Engineering obtained and evaluated data and documentation relevant to information regarding the physical features of the wastewater plant to perform professional services to Phase the demolition work.
The project began with developing a plan to divert flow from the Island Beach Plant to the City’s expanded AWT facility. Upon switching flows, the old plant was decommissioned and cleaned. Asbestos materials were removed while TGW Engineering finalized demolition and civil plans and specifications. The demolition and construction work was divided into two separate contracts for scheduling purposes.
One of the design challenges was the development of demolition specifications for three Crom pre-stressed concrete tanks. Old record drawings were found to assist with describing existing conditions for safety considerations.
