Lake Merritt Boathouse Wins Concrete Award
Alpha Restoration and Waterproofing submitted work done on the historic Lake Merritt Boathouse for recognition by the International Concrete Repair Institute. The project has been designated an Award of Merit for 2009. “Severe spalling and structural deficiencies were uncovered once excavation began and the substructure was exposed in December 2006. Thorough investigations were immediately employed to determine the extent and causes of the deficiencies. Plans and specifications were developed by February 2007. The project was bid in March and awarded to an experienced concrete repair specialist contractor in April. The repair contractor mobilized in April, started excavating in May, and completed the repairs in September 2007. A challenging job was completed in very tight working conditions. The project was completed on time, within budget, and without any injuries to the work crew.” For more information about the ICRI, http://www.icri.org/AWARDS/2009/2009.asp
