This treatment include #2 stone enveloped in a special fabric. Placement of this material posed several issues since there was only one access point between the ends of this mile long reconstruction project. The construction method required heavy equipment to access the newly placed stone in order to continue placement of the materials. During the placement of the first 11000 feet, the heavy loads caused the treatment to fail with mud pumping up through the fabric and stone. Before this situation got out of hand, Myron shut down the project and worked with the geotechnical engineer, INDOT soils, and the designer to come up with an alternative subgrade treatment that worked as well or even better. The solution required the contractor to remove the placed special subgrade, bring the roadway earth back onto the site, and double treat the soil with cement. This process delayed the project for three months; however, the project still finished on schedule and under budget. This was due to Myron's persistence to find a solution that would work and meet the project schedule and budget. T YC ;ENHAM BRIDGE REHABILITATION IN S7r. JOSE!
