South Central Force Main Replacements Final Design – Kitsap County, WA

Project engineer for the preparation of specifications for both Schedules 1 and 2, including assistance with various aspects of the design, such as transient analyses using MWH software, pipe loading analyses using Excel & MathCad and QC. The project also included the addition of 6,500 feet of 18-inch HDPE reclaimed water transmission main parallel to the 34-inch HDPE sewage force main for the Silverdale Water District (Schedule 2). Special design and construction measures and requirements were needed to protect the existing Techite force main during construction. One of the special construction measures was the need for hot tapping, isolation and line plugging to provide uninterrupted service and allow the installation of permanent connections at the downstream and upstream connection points.
