Rehabilitation of the Ship Dock
Location: Trainer, Pennsylvania
S. T. Hudson Engineers performed underwater inspection of the ship dock and found the ship dock required extensive repairs. A feasibility study was prepared to determine the most economical means of rehabilitating the dock while keeping the crude oil dock in service. The scope of service included federal and state permit applications, construction documents for a new approachway, mooring and breasting dolphins, walkways, loading platform and demolition of existing structures. Hudson is ensuring that the installation of temporary walkways and product piping supports, construction of a new steel pipe pile-supported concrete approachway, and partial demolition of the existing timber low deck structure was in accordance with specifications. Construction is ongoing—four (4) new steel pile-supported reinforced concrete mooring dolphins have been completed in August 2007. The complete rehabilitation of the ship dock is anticipated to be the end of 2008.
