SUMMARY: Bradshaw was contracted to install a drop shaft in rock on a small footprint bordered by the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Potomac River and the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge. The drop shaft contained two 108" sanitary sewer interceptors which will eventually be connected to DC Water's large diameter combined sewer overflow mitigation tunnels currently being constructed. The Kennedy... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: Bradshaw constructed six shafts in downtown Baltimore City for 2,553' of 36” gravity sewer installed in rock by TBM (gneiss up to 37,000 psi). In addition to providing tunnel access, the shafts were used to install new sewer manholes and connections to the existing system. The 16' & 24' diameter shafts (depths ranged from 18' to 57') were supported by steel ribs & wood lagging in the soft... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: To resolve CSO flooding from a collapsed sewer for the City of Richmond, Bradshaw installed 4 tunnels from various drive and recovery shafts. These included the use of the New Austrian Tunnel Method (NATM – Sprayed reinforce shotcrete), steel sheet piling, steel rib and wood lagging, and trench box shafts. The all varied in depth up to 60’ deep. The NATM shafts were 30' ID. The structures... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: As part of a 6,000 foot microtunnel sewer project, Bradshaw installed a 40’ wide x 70' long x 35’ deep elliptical shaft over an existing 42” sewer and manhole. This shaft was large enough to allow a gravity by-pass of the existing 42” sewer so a unique cross-over structure could be constructed to tie this existing sewer into the new microtunneled 48” sewer. The shaft was excavated by... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: The City of Atlanta awarded a design-build contract to Western Summit Constructors, Inc. (WSCI) to construct a 100 mgd, 160' deep pump station at the R.M. Clayton WWTP. WSCI hired Bradshaw/Frontier Kemper JV (BFK) to design, excavate and support the shaft for the pump station. Jenny Engineering designed the shaft for BFK. The shaft was 72' in diameter by 150 feet deep after site excavation. The... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: Bradshaw constructed a 48 foot ID x 40 feet deep shaft over an existing 96” sanitary sewer. Bradshaw used the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM) to install and support the shaft. The ground conditions were silt, sand (micaceous residual) soils with gneiss boulders. A cast in place concrete junction chamber was built in the shaft to tie in the existing sewer with a new 66” PCCP sewer... Complete Project Profile | |||||

SUMMARY: The Metro Entrance Facility was a security-driven project designed to eliminate the direct entry to the Pentagon from the Metro tunnel and provide a secure screening facility for Pentagon visitors. As part of the project, a 50' deep elevator was constructed between the existing underground station and connecting to the existing escalator passage for handicap access. Bradshaw was selected to...

SUMMARY: Bradshaw constructed an elliptical shaped shaft with the dimensions of 73 feet x 42 feet x 35 feet deep using the New Austrian Tunnel Method (NATM). The ground conditions were silt, sand and gravel. The shaft was used to install 1,700’ of TBM tunnel for an 84 inch steel water main and to construct a triple 84 inch butterfly valve vault. The principal challenge of the project was to install... Complete Project Profile | |||||
