Can Lightweight Insulating Concrete (LWIC) be placed on wood structures? YES! Our recent project in San Francisco showcases its versatility across various structures. This impressive 34,000-square-foot facility will serve as a vibrant hub for the Priory community. The center features a mass timber design, complemented by advanced design-build MEP systems, emphasizing both innovation and sustainability.

A distinctive element of this project is the incorporation of 2 # holey board into our LWIC system. While we typically use 1 # holey board, the need for enhanced load-bearing capacity in specific exterior areas warranted this denser option. The outcome is a seamless installation of LWIC material, ensuring excellent bearing capacity, fire ratings, and insulation values.

Moreover, the flowable nature of the LWIC material facilitated the easy installation of several conduit lines embedded within the insulation.

Poughkeepsie, NY - As the Mid-Hudson Bridge approaches its 100th anniversary in 2030, the importance of rehabilitating its aging infrastructure cannot be overstated.

A critical component of this project is the use of lightweight cellular concrete, to infill the existing viaduct structures which offers significant advantages in enhancing structural support while minimizing disruptions to traffic, particularly during peak travel times.

The flowable nature of this material allows for easy placement in challenging areas without the need for extensive equipment movement, ensuring that traffic flow remains largely uninterrupted. By utilizing a simple 3-inch hose system positioned along core holes in the viaducts, we can efficiently fill each section with cellular concrete, providing the necessary volume with a minimal physical footprint. This approach not only supports the structural integrity of the bridge but also exemplifies how lightweight cellular concrete serves as an optimal solution in complex infrastructure projects, balancing the demands of safety and accessibility for the traveling public.

When safety, longevity, and traffic flow are all top priorities, innovative infrastructure solutions make all the difference.

The I-65 Central Corridor Project is dedicated to enhancing safety and minimizing unplanned closures while significantly extending the lifespan of existing structures. Over the next three years, the project will focus on replacing or rehabilitating at least nine bridges within the corridor.

A key innovation in this project is the use of Cellular Concrete (LCC), which plays a vital role in our approach. By converting several bridges into embankments, we can maintain open lanes without the need for closures. We plan to place approximately 18,000 cubic yards of Class II material beneath the bridge beams, optimizing the structural integrity and durability.

The ease of placement and the minimal footprint of LCC make it the perfect solution for this project, ensuring both efficiency and sustainability as we work to enhance the infrastructure of the I-65 Central Corridor.

Big infrastructure upgrades call for smart, efficient solutions and this Clark County interchange reconstruction is a perfect example.

The project situated at the interchange of the Clark County 215 Beltway and Summerlin Parkway entails a comprehensive reconstruction of the existing interchange. This involves extensive roadway enhancements, reconfiguration of ramps, and the construction of new ramps.
A significant feature of this project is the incorporation of cellular concrete behind the MSE wall. The use of cellular concrete serves one main purposes; Load Reduction: Cellular concrete is lightweight compared to traditional fill material, which substantially reduces the load on underground utilities and adjacent channel structures. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of existing infrastructure without the need of enhancing the overall stability of the site.
To further optimize construction efficiency, our equipment is set near a bike path from above the MSE wall. This is possible due to the small footprint and reduction of trucks needed to produce upwards of 14,000CY of class II material. Each cement load will produce roughly 120CY of cellular concrete material, significantly minimizing the volume of truck traffic in the area. By reducing the need for import traditional fill, we've effectively decreased truck traffic by a factor of ten. This reduction not only alleviates congestion but also enhances safety in the work zone, minimizing the disruption to the local community and surrounding environment.

Flashback to when we brought serious performance to Las Vegas 🏗️ 1700 Pavilion in Downtown Summerlin, Las Vegas, NV. Spanning 267,000 square feet on three acres adjacent to the Las Vegas Ballpark, 1700 Pavilion is a 10 story Class-A office building that provides an unparalleled view of the stadium, and walking distance access to all the restaurants, shops, and amenities of Downtown Summerlin.

For Eberhard Roofing, we provided Lightweight Insulating Concrete over stair-stepped EPS insulation to meet the R-30 Minimum insulation value requirement over approximately 27,000 square feet.

Stepping back to revisit a project that made a lasting impact. 👷‍♀️ Laguna Beach Tunnel Project

The over 60-year-old tunnel housed a gravity sewer that provided wastewater service for the northern portion of Dana Point and homes along the west side of Coast Highway at Three Arch Bay and in South Laguna. It was buried approximately 50 feet beneath the bluff from Three Arch Bay to Aliso Beach. The tunnel, located 20–30 feet from the edge of the cliffs and underneath multi-million-dollar homes, posed a serious risk. A potential pipeline break could have taken 36 hours or longer to control, allowing over 800,000 gallons of sewage to flow into a federally protected marine life habitat.

When built in 1964, the tunnel became an innovative engineering model because it relied solely on gravity flow. This eliminated costly and unsightly infrastructure, including unnecessary lift stations and several thousand feet of sewer mains. The system maintained a minimal carbon footprint from its first day of operation and remained a vital piece of regional infrastructure.

Part of the project called for a section of pipe that had been removed to be backfilled with flowable fill. The challenge was that even though there were access doors from the beach to the tunnel, the site was inaccessible due to the surrounding private neighborhoods. The solution was to grout the area from an access shaft located 6,300 feet away from the point of injection. Because the size of the void was unknown, a series of tremie pipes were bored to access the void space, and material placement then began.

This solution helped ensure that homeowners above the tunnel had no risk of property damage due to the underground void.

A project this size deserves a second look. 🏗️ Take a look back to the Burlingame's Topgolf facility project! This state-of-the-art, three-story building spans an impressive 71,000 square feet. The building was elevated 5 feet above the ground due to its unique foundation design. Supported by 364 piles and grade beams, similar to a patio deck, ensured a stable and durable build. What makes this location truly fascinating is that it was built on a former landfill.

The 5-foot area was backfilled with class II cellular concrete. This material, known for its flowable properties, was perfect for filling irregular spaces and accommodating the necessary infrastructure. Moreover, the lightweight nature of the cellular concrete offered an added advantage; It minimized the risk of settlement.

Burlingame's Topgolf facility showcased an innovative approach to construction and site utilization. Its unique foundation design and choice of materials demonstrated the project team's commitment to overcoming challenges and delivering an exceptional venue for golf enthusiasts.

Exciting developments in our approach to leverage technology in construction.

LiDAR scanning has revolutionized how we communicate volume expectations on complex projects where volumes are unknown before project kickoff. This innovative technology empowers all stakeholders to confidently assess pay volume, for projects with irregular areas and existing backfill material.

A prime example of this is the upcoming Mid Hudson Bridge project in New York, where LiDAR played a crucial role in planning the backfill of the existing viaduct with cellular concrete.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to leverage technology to enhance project outcomes!
