Description

NA LOCK CONSTRUCTION, MCALPINE LOCK REPLACEMENT PROJECT, LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY. The work consists of construction of a new 1200-foot navigation lock at the McAlpine Locks & Dam as well as construction of a fixed access bridge across both the new lock and an e xisting 1200-foot lock. The work includes construction of concrete chamber walls (RCC and Conventional), sills, culverts and discharge diffusers. Construction of these items will require rock excavation to founding grades. The work includes construction of steel miter gates and culvert valves. Construction includes all machinery and controls necessary to operate the lock. Construction of four service buildings on top of the lock walls is also required. Construction also includes all necessary backfilling and grading. The majority of the lock construction will occur within a cofferdam constructed and originally dewatered by others. Work will include operation and maintenance of the cofferdam. Work under this contract will also include demolition of the cofferdam. This demolition will include removal of concrete filled sheet pile cells, sand filled cells and stability berms, and detensioning of high capacity structural anchors in the south wall of the existing 1200-foot lock. Demolition of the existing swing bridge, bascule bridge and portions of existing concrete and sandstone masonry lock walls are also required. The work also includes construction of upstream and downstream approach walls. These walls will consist of precast concrete beams supported by either concrete caissons drilled into the rock foundation or concrete filled circular sheet pile cells. The approach wall support type is an alternate to be chosen by the offeror. It will be necessary to construct portions of both approach walls outs ide of the cofferdam in the wet. The access bridge will consist of prestressed concrete beams with CIP concrete deck supported by concrete piers founded on drilled caissons. This is a Request for Proposals and offers will be evaluated on the following te chnical basis, listed in descending order of importance: (1) Experience; (2) Past Performance; (3) Technical Approach; (4) Project Management; and (5) Subcontracting Plan.
