Scope Of Work
This project involved the construction of a new Labyrinth Spillway and partial demolition of the existing dam. Reedy Fork Creek had to be diverted away from the work area before construction of the new dam could begin. A diversion wall of steel plate and piles was constructed parallel to the creek and a cofferdam and access bridge was installed downstream of the site. In excess of 350,000 cubic yards of material was moved during the earthwork portion of the project and more than 10,000 cubic yards of concrete were placed, incorporating over 1.5 million pounds of reinforcing steel. This process required more than 100 concrete pours and was performed in six months.
