This project consisted of construction of new container wharf, that includes 17-acre, 2-million-cubic-yard, offshore fill, and the shoreline seismic buttress consisting of cement deep soil mixing (CDSM) wall. his project involved the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) review.
Group Delta, an NV5 Company, provided the geotechnical investigation and seismic design (performed by staff prior to joining firm), as well as proposed and evaluated innovative and cost-effective geotechnical solutions including CDSM for shoreline stabilization and mitigation for liquefaction and static settlement. Our team also presented geotechnical and seismic aspects to the BCDC Engineering Criteria Review Board.
Added Value
- Innovative Geotechnical Solutions: Our team proposed and evaluated cost-effective ground improvement strategies, including cement deep soil mixing (CDSM), to stabilize the shoreline and mitigate liquefaction and static settlement risks.
- Seismic Design Expertise: Our team delivered geotechnical investigation and seismic design (by staff prior to joining Group Delta), ensuring the resilience of the 17-acre, 2-million-cubic-yard offshore fill and supporting infrastructure.
- Regulatory Engagement: Our team presented geotechnical and seismic design elements to the BCDC Engineering Criteria Review Board, facilitating regulatory review and approval for this high-profile San Francisco Bay waterfront project.
