San Francisco Ferry Terminal

San Francisco Bay Area Water Emergency Transportation Authority (WETA), Seaplane Lagoon Ferry Terminal, Alameda, CA.

BSK Associates worked with Ghirardelli on the San Francisco Ferry Terminal. Ghirardelli acted as the City of Alameda’s consultant construction management firm for the project and coordinated with the developer and with WETA to help ensure the project met all stakeholder expectations and requirements. The Ghirardelli CM was Bill Davis.

BSK provided Quality Assurance testing materials testing/special inspection of field/shop welding inspection. Furthermore, we provided special inspections of high-strength bolting, and reinforced concrete. Additionally, we administered post-installed anchor, and geotechnical support for ground improvement.

This new construction ferry terminal includes a passenger loading float, fixed pier, and a gangway connecting the two.  Also included are public shoreline improvements, a parking area, and infrastructure improvements required to support the facility. Lastly, 7.14 acres of landscaping, parking, and bike/pedestrian pathways, and approximately 13,000 SF of ferry terminal building, gangway and float were included.

Alhambra Valley Road Bridge Washout and Emergency Culvert Repair

Alhambra Valley Road Bridge Washout and Emergency Culvert Repair

Under a geotechnical engineering on-call services contract directly with Contra Costa County, BSK investigated this landslide. BSK also provided repair recommendations so the roadway could be restored.

Recommendations included Soldier Pile and lagging, and stitch piers. Recommendations also included landslide removal and slope reconstruction. As part of an on-call construction management contract, BSK provided materials testing services for this project as it proceeded to construction. Furthermore, the project included removal of washed-out culvert debris and headwalls, and the construction of a single span, pre-cast, prestressed voided slab bridge.  Additionally, the bridge was supported on concrete abutments on driven piles, and a new roadway section was placed for the bridge approach.  BSK provided materials testing offsite for precast member fabrication and onsite for earthwork. Moreover,  hot-mix asphalt pavement, and concrete construction elements were provided.
