PROJECT INFORMATION: The scope of work for this project is divided into two categories: (1a) The South Bulkhead Stop Log Dam Recesses and (1b) Steel Bar Filter Screens for intake culverts, for Troy Lock and Dam located in the New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The lock and dam were constructed from 1913 to 1915. Contracts for various repairs, maintenance and upgrades have been performed since being built. (1a) The South Bulkhead Stop Log Dam Recesses – The goal is to repair the concrete recesses for stop-log dam installation. The tolerances of the existing concrete recesses of the lock guide walls no longer support installation of the stop-log dam used for dewatering the lock due to their deteriorated condition. The scope of work would include removing the deteriorated and uneven concrete, install new pre-fabricated steel bulkhead slots to restore functionality and ability to dewater the lock for emergency or scheduled maintenance. The current recesses are deeper than required and will be infilled with concrete to provide the correct depth needed for installation of the existing stop logs. The new pre-fabricated bulkhead slots will be equipped with guides to aid in stop log placement. The vertical concrete lock-wall surfaces upstream of the existing slots will be resurfaced with new concrete to restore integrity and provide smooth transition between the slots and the existing electrical crossover. Bulkheads slot cover plates will be integrated into the design to protect the slots from future damage caused by navigation. (1b) Steel Bar Filter Screens for intake culverts – The two existing steel bar filters are in poor shape and need to be replaced with a similar system. These are approximately 11’4” wide and 9’-6” high and are made up of A-36 structural steel members. Each bar screen will be provided with removable or hinged access hatches for personnel and equipment access. The existing concrete bearing surfaces and embedded anchorage metals will be replaced to provide new anchorage for the new filter screens SURVEY OF THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR INDUSTRY The following is a confidential survey questionnaire designed to apprise the US Army Corps of Engineers, NY District, of any prospective construction contractors' project execution capabilities.
