Location: Egg Harbor, NJ
Project start date: May 2019
Project end date: March 2020
Synopsys of Development:
Design, fabrication and deployment of a special drainage channel. The channel is located on top of an MSE containment berm with the Atlantic County Landfill.

This project had the following constraints:
- Channel geometry with curves and changes in elevation
- Location on top of MSE berm
- Provisions for future work
Design, fabrication, and testing activities:
- Purchase of new formwork
- Development of lifting and rigging plan
- Thin wall construction to maintain legal shipment load characteristics
- Plan and Hardware for rolling product 180 degrees after production
Design
- Traffic Loading
- Joint Design
- Layout to match proposed location
- Design of radius curve sections to avoid large number of unique pieces
Fabrication
- All units were poured inverted and required 180 rolling after production
- Curved pieces required special tapers to allow for proper demolding
- Purchase of curved formwork.
