Project Description
The DRYCO team completed a structural concrete project for W.L. Butler Construction in Emeryville, California. We provided:
- Jobsite supervision.
- A rental lift for moving materials.
- Trench plates for access through the job site.
- Regular clean-up of the site.
- Rebar shop drawings.
Site Excavation
DRYCO started with a certified building pad and excavated 1,650 cubic yards. We then loaded and hauled off those 1,650 as clean spoils from the jobsite.
Construction Scope
We constructed the footing for the elevator pit with a 12″ thick concrete slab and 12″ thick concrete walls.
We also constructed 2,380 linear feet of grade beam footings ranging from 2′ to 10′ wide, along with rebar. Next, we made 20 column footings and two stair footings, with an enlarged footing at the ramp end walls. The backfill footings were constructed with on-site spoils.
We set steel weld plates — furnished by others — and corrugated sleeves, which DRYCO furnished.
A 4″ barrier of crushed rock and a 15 mil vapor barrier were placed under the new slab on the grades at the loading dock, ramp, and interior walkway. It was 14,000 square feet in total.
We deducted 23′ x 15′ of 6″ slab on grade and rock.
We formed and poured a 6″ slab on grade for the beginning of the ramp portion going up. Includes 2,000 SF w/ #5 rebar.
Concrete Walls
The concrete walls of the Emeryville structure were raised along two sides of a raised loading dock at the front and wrapped around to the north end. We also constructed an 80′ wall along the east side of the depressed dock and a 60′ wall along the ramp leading up to the dock. This ended up being 210 linear feet in all.
Concrete Dock Levelers
Two dock levelers were constructed, and we poured an 8″ dock slab and a 6″ ramp slab at the back. The DRYCO team then formed and poured a 6″ slab on grade up to the ramp and 7″ thick at the ramp with #5 rebar. Form and pour 12″ thick slab at compactor w/ sloped walkway. Form and pour 800 square feet of the interior slab.
Deadman Footings & Trench
Trenched for footing into subgrade, leaving gaps at grade beams. Constructed approximately 1,300 LF of 2′ x 2′ continuous footings at multiple locations per plan provided with two #5 bars.
Building Pad Construction
DRYCO prepped the subgrade and excavated for perimeter footing. Placed and compacted 6″ of class 2 recycled base rock for a new pad. No off-haul saw cutting, pavement demo.
Constructed a new 23′ x 15′ concrete pad with perimeter footing. Includes 18″ x 18″ perimeter footing with added #4 rebar, 7″ thick pad with #4 rebar. Form and pour pad using staked hubs for layout and elevations. 3,000 PSI mix, natural color, standard finish.
Mobilized to pour back utility block out in slab.
