Here’s another seawall in a line of Seawalls that were replacing the equals 300 foot. This one was a little more difficult due to the overhang of the large oak tree in the existing boathouse. Once we got started, there was an existing vinyl wall that was failing and a creosote wall that had been Replaced and left in place that we had to remove.

GULF BREEZE FL SEAWALL REPLACEMENT
Переглядів 9 тис.Місяць тому
The seawall was failing due to the tiebacks rusting off and the old Timber wall being eaten by Treto board worms. Upon removing this wall, we found another creosote wall behind that it failed also that we had to remove. We didn’t install a new 20 foot sheet piling with 20 foot naval style piles to support the embankment.

On this project we met our engineer on site to discover the pilings that support the retainer wall were notched almost into for the tieback rods to support the wall. This is not satisfactory as you could see in the video. Some of the pilings had started to fail and split so we reinforced the wall. At the same time but the vibration I believe some of the existing pilings on the observation deck ...

On this project, we were going to remove the customers, old Boardwalk and aluminum seawall that was failing. After discussing the project with him, I advised him to increase the elevation of the wall to be able to possibly install a pool in a future and get some of the slope out of the yard, which he was on board with, the transformation of this is amazing!

You won’t believe the transformation on this project taking an old wood seawall that was failing that the existing owner had just dumped a bunch of rip wrap over, trying to stop the erosion opposed to fixing it correctly.

    These guys do good jobs..... I see they use a 4 ×4 on the retaining wall instead of the green telephone poles, I wonder if it was for cost. early 90s after hurricane Andrew swept through South Florida I was working next to an FPL lineman crew and he made the comment that one of those green poles are 600.00 a piece.... I was going to run over some polls that was in the way... And I made the comment dude ask the only way to get around to the other side if the pole breaks so be it..... That he said no man Apple 600 bucks I don't want to hear from the people at the top don't break it...... I was shocked add the cost of those green poles

    These guys do good work.... I always wondered how long equipment lasts for the Marine companies under those harsh conditions. It must be expensive as hell to build docks and seawall because if you have to replace your equipment every 6 to 7 years and the caterpillar 308 it's about $170,000 that is not pocket change.... I've been to auctions and you can tell the equipment that was used by the Marine companies... Because they're all rotten to hell.... Marine companies most least their equipments

    • @DaleWHickman
      @DaleWHickman День тому

      Thanks for your comment and question. Concrete; caps really increases the cost of the seawall. It makes it hard to be competitive with some of the smaller contractors in the area. Most people just really don’t care for it. They like the synthetic top cap which allows a good pressure release during storms with the gaps in between the deck.
