AGC Community Service Winner: Shasta District – CSU Chico Student Chapter for “Caper Acres Swings Project – Bidwell Park” – Chico


Te Chico State AGC Student


Chapter approached the City of Chico about becoming involved in the Caper Acres Renovation Project at Bidwell Park, which was in dire need of renovation. In July 2017 the Student Chapter


committed to performing Phase 1C, the “swings” area, of the park’s renovation project. Close review of the $106,000 published budget made clear that significant scopes of work were missing, including rough grading, drainage, fall protection material, concrete curbs, installation of the play equipment, and a signifi- cantly under-budgeted line item for concrete seat wall work. Te Chapter’s student leaders


“re-estimated” the project to include the full scope of work at prevailing wage labor. Te revised estimate was $225,000 - $250,000, far in excess of available funding. Undeterred and committed to making the project a reality, the student leaders came up with two value engineering proposals and succeeded in obtaining donated or deeply discounted materials from key suppliers. Students worked on the project


nearly every Friday and Saturday during the months of September- November 2017 and February-April

constructed the new concrete arch bridge as well as all staging require- ments within the narrow footprint of the existing two-lane steel arch bridge, while maintaining public traffic at all times. Te structural capacity and load


bearing limitations of the existing bridge presented a significant challenge. Flatiron developed innovative solutions, including utilizing a temporary steel falsework system which spanned between the new concrete arches to support one-half of the new bridge’s superstructure and live traffic. Te team looked to mitigate


2018. Significant challenges arose due to an incorrect initial topog- raphy, incorrect documentation of existing trees (resulting in 3 design revisions), weather, and unforeseen tree mitigation. Ultimately, the project logged over


2,744 volunteer hours and completed within schedule, under the original budget and with zero safety incidents.


Excellence in Project Management – Projects $15 Million or Below Winner: Flatiron West, Inc. for “South Fork Smith River Road” – Hiouchi


Flatiron West


delivered a host of engineering solutions on the South Fork Smith River Road project in Northern California’s Del Norte County. Te project called


for the replacement of an existing 230-ft.- long steel arch bridge originally constructed in 1948. Spanning the South Fork of the Smith River 65 feet above the water, the new concrete arch bridge has a main span of 141 feet built into natural rock outcroppings. Crews


environmental impacts throughout construction. One solution was Flatiron’s decision to suspend the arch soffit falsework on high strength rods from overhead steel trusses. Project access offered limited areas to position equipment, creating a challenge in assembling and erecting the trusses. Crews used a jacking and rolling system to help position the steel trusses over the river. Tis approach met the environ- mental goal of not placing temporary falsework within the river channel.
