PDH LUNCHEON: Innovative Quality Control of C-44 Reservoir Toe Trench Drain via CPT Soundings

Presentation Description:

From 2015 to 2023, H2R provided geotechnical and construction services for the C-44 Reservoir, managed by USACE and SFWMD.

H2R played a key role in developing quality control systems for critical work features. H2R’s value-engineered solution eliminated the need for shoring along the 9-mile trench and streamlined the compaction and testing of drain sand. H2R’s innovative method using CPT soundings for density verification reduced costs and construction time.

This presentation explores the toe trench drain design, CPT methodology, and the correlation between CPT results and dry density.
