Over the past ten months, dedicated GeoEngineers staff have been rotating through night shifts overseeing drilling along I-405 near Bothell, Washington for WSDOT’s ambitious Brickyard project, and this week they completed their final borehole! #FieldFriday Our field team spent more than 3,000 hours logging 242 boreholes since last October. Most of this work had to be completed between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. so lanes could be temporarily closed with minimal impact on traffic. A huge thank you to everyone who spent nights hard at work along the highway, including our friends at Holocene Drilling, Holt Services, Inc., and Cascade Environmental, LLC! The I-405 Brickyard to SR 527 Improvement Project will enhance a four-and-a-half-mile stretch of interstate with a dual-express toll lane system, add three new Sound Transit bus rapid transit (BRT) stations, and improve multimodal connections. Construction is expected to continue through 2028. #Drilling #geotech #nightshifts #transportationengineering Washington State Department of Transportation

The Q H & M Birt team overhauled their workflows to cut their survey processing time in half with Trimble Stratus. Their success by the numbers: 🎯 800 + hours saved 🎯 4,132 measurements created 🎯 437 surveys processed At that's just over the last 12 months!! Ben Reece, shared: “Just a few years back, a larger team would manually survey all the changes made during the month, necessitating a comprehensive resurvey of the entire site for end-of-month volumes. Today, we efficiently fly over the site in just one day.” Read their success story here: https://bit.ly/44SLSi3 Special shoutout to Ben Reece, Satish Chand, Ian Cini and Daniel Wood for taking the time to share their story with the Propeller team. Plus extra shoutout to our partners Kieran Dinuzzo, Sean Baxter and Lesley Brigden from SITECH Construction Systems for helping bring this partnership with QBirt to life. #civil #earthworks #road #rail #mining #bulkearthworks #dronesurveying #teamwork #civilengineering #constructionindustry #accuracywins #propeller

The world is a better place the day after a picture like this is taken that's for sure. A sight to see, multiple cranes ready to hoist a big inch drag section, a rig ready to pull in a monster bore. Optimized Trenchless believes in doing the job right, with honesty and integrity from start to finish, it has to be that way. So, when the line is in after a day like this everyone can walk away proud of their accomplishments. You know the feeling. #drilling #horizontaldirectionaldrilling #hdd #performance #trenchless #trenchlesstechnology #boring #reaming #albertaenergy #canadianenergy #culture #people #connection #safety #directionaldrilling #water #lng #experience #project #environment #optimizedtrenchless #supplychainmanagement #supplychain #projectmanagment #data #contracts #construction #constructionmanagement #directpipe #tunnelling #equipment #innovation #technology #pipeline

Our dedicated team at Devco Development and Engineering has recently completed a critical phase of our project in Rancho Cucamonga—utility potholing. This essential process allows us to safely and accurately locate existing underground utilities, such as gas, water, sewer, and electrical lines. Why is Utility Potholing Important? Safety First: By identifying the exact locations and depths of existing utilities, we can prevent accidental damage and ensure the safety of our crew and the public. Precision: Accurate data from potholing helps us plan and execute the next stages of our project with greater precision. Efficiency: Minimizing the risk of utility strikes helps keep our projects on schedule and within budget. Tomorrow, we move on to the next phase: Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD). With the depths of the utilities now confirmed, HDD allows us to install new utility lines with minimal disruption to the surface environment. This trenchless technology not only enhances efficiency but also supports our commitment to environmentally responsible practices. A big shoutout to our team for their meticulous work and unwavering commitment to safety and excellence. We look forward to sharing more updates as we progress.

Over the course of the past few decades, trenchless engineering projects have deeply seated themselves as an integral facet to both the rehabilitation and development of global infrastructure. While this is no secret; this was certainly not by mistake either. Trenchless utility/pipeline installation decreases both the environmental impact and cost variable of traditional excavation while also significantly reducing disruption to surrounding areas. This approach allows new infrastructure to be replaced and/or constructed in a quick and efficient manner, even in the most sensitive areas, with minimal disturbance to landscapes and communities. As a member of The HDD Company CHPE project team, it has been remarkable to see so many people and organizations come together to collaborate for the advancement of powering New York into the future. This project is history in the making. There are so many variables involved within executing a deployment of this magnitude. Having a switched on team that you can rely on keeps things simple. Thanks to Longhorn Trucking Co., Inc, which has been with us every step of the way and allowed us to move kinetically across these various project locations. I don’t think I’ll ever not get excited watching big iron cycling material into a clean new Peterbilt and a MAC quad-axle end dump. This is drilling. This is what we do. 🇺🇸🇨🇦 #WeAreTheCrossingGroup #HDD #Construction #ConstructionManagement #Projects #ProjectManagement #Infrastructure #Utilities #Drilling #DirectionalDrilling #OilandGas #Water #Sewer #Power #TransmissionLines #Engineering #Distribution #Coordination #Utility #Strategics #Collaborative #Constructors

Pile Testing is an essential process to ensure the safety and reliability of these foundational elements. Since the inspection of the construction work cannot be performed to the naked eye, here are some methods we employ to address the site's lack of visibility! Want to know what practical pile test appropriate for our project's foundation? You can contact us at +639165131362 or e-mail mgesinquiry@gmail.com. You can also follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @magnumsgeoengineering. #PileTest #PileIntegrity #piledrivinganalysis #sonictest #foundationbest #pilefoundation #subsurfaceengineering #soildrilling #soiltest #geologicalexploration #geotechnicalengineering

It has been 12 months since Carroll Technologies Group launched our collision avoidance campaign, designed to raise awareness about collision safety issues within heavy industries, including mining, tunneling, oil and gas and construction. Over the past year, we have had many inquiries about our collision avoidance and proximity detection solutions, ranging from two of the largest global manufacturers of powered haulage equipment, to smaller mining facilities with only a few vehicles and everything in between. One of the things we enjoy the most is knowing that for every solution we provide, we're improving safety for workers across North America. Is your workforce protected? #CollisionAvoidance #ProximityDetection #ProximityWarningDevices #PoweredHaulage #PoweredHaulageSafety #MineSafety #MSHA #OSHA #IndustrialSafety

Steeper and deeper, right? Optimized Trenchless agrees and we aren't just talking about the bore. Our SME's deep involvement in the industry allows us to save clients the steep learning curve forcing them deep into schedule slippage with steep cost overruns. Our team was deeply involved with trenchless innovations early on, not watching from the steep bank on the side of location, neck deep in the decision-making process for both preparation and execution. Now we take deep dives into the details, preventing owner's projects going off the deep end. We use prime offset data to provide deep insights into contractor performance and potential challenges, resulting in a steep improvement in planning and decision-making processes, creating a steep improvement on all aspects of projects. Avoiding steep delays due to technical challenges by utilizing our deep knowledge of the industry, drilling, contracts, equipment, drilling fluids coupled with that real hands-on experience you know we have. Steeper and deeper, definitely. #drilling #horizontaldirectionaldrilling #hdd #performance #trenchless #trenchlesstechnology #boring #reaming #albertaenergy #canadianenergy #culture #people #connection #safety #directionaldrilling #water #lng #experience #project #environment #optimizedtrenchless #supplychainmanagement #supplychain #projectmanagment #data #contracts #construction #constructionmanagement #directpipe #tunnelling #equipment #innovation #technology #pipeline
