The I-480 Valley View Bridge project near Cleveland, Ohio involved the construction of a third bridge structure between two existing structures. The design-build team of Walsh Construction and CH2M (now Jacobs) developed the pile load test program and contracted GRL to perform the testing and analysis.
As skyscrapers reach higher and become heavier, so pilings must be inserted deeper into the ground, resulting in a greater margin for error. Irregularities in the drilled shafts or deviation from the required angle, will mean less support for the structure above.
The Thermal Wire® cables work with TAP Edge to collect data. This data is then sent from TAP Edge boxes to a TAG unit, sending the data via a cellular modem to the Cloud.
