ASCE Sponsored Presentation on Non-Destructive Testing – October 19th in Lafayette, LA

October 18, 2017

Non-destructive testing techniques have not changed in many years, although we are seeing an increase in their use. With more powerful computers, able to handle reams of data in real time on a project site, the sky may be the limit for non-destructive testing. Braun Intertec invites you to attend a presentation by our very own Alfred Gardiner, PE on non-destructive testing. We will cover how to use these techniques, what techniques work in different situations, and will review case studies of GPR, Pulse Velocity, Impact Echo, Parallel Seismic, and much more.

When:October 19, 2017 at 6:00 PM

Where:Walk-On’s Bistreaux & Bar, 2336 Kaliste Saloom Rd, Lafayette, LA 70508

Hosted by:American Society of Civil Engineers – Acadiana Branch

Advancements in Deep Foundations: Augered Cast-In-Place Piles

The owner prohibited using driven piles to avoid disturbing neighbors of the project and historically, drilled shafts are used in Fargo as a reduced noise and vibration alternative to driven piles. However, developments over the last 20 to 30 years in drilling equipment, load testing and integrity testing resulted in the project team identifying augered cast-in-place piles as a suitable alternative for this project. To reduce the risks...

[OnDemand Webinar] Updated Minnesota Construction Stormwater Permit: What You Need to Know as an Owner/Operator

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has just finalized the 2018 construction stormwater permit and new projects going forward will be subject to the revised rules. This new permit is effective beginning August 1, 2018 and expires July 31, 2023. The MPCA recognizes that the best way to improve water quality in Minnesota is to better manage stormwater – which can have devastating consequences on the quality of our lakes, rivers, streams and wetlands. Because of this fact, the agency has regularly enforced the conditions within the permit, and we expect the trend to continue with the adoption of the...

Nationwide Permit 12 Ruling Carries National Implications for Pipeline Projects

On April 15, 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana issued a ruling that could have sweeping effects for energy and development projects nationally. The court ruled that the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) violated provisions of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) when it approved Nationwide Permit (NWP 12) in 2017. The permit was obtained by TC Energy to facilitate the progress of the Keystone XL oil-sands pipeline project, but this ruling will create greater obstacles for the large-scale project and pipeline projects nationally. The Court vacated NWP 12 in its entirety and ordered the Corp to undergo...
