The Town of Del Norte’s collection system had significant structural issues including collapsed clay pipes, cracks, and offset joints. This caused significant inflow and infiltration (groundwater/runoff) into the collection system, sometimes as much as doubling or tripling the normal influent wastewater flow to the wastewater treatment plant. This significantly affected the treatment facility’s ability to […]
Center Sanitation District was struggling for years with a non-compliant lagoon system. The existing facility had chronic BOD, TIN, and E. Coli violations of their groundwater discharge permit. The district was issued a Notice of Violation Cease and Desist Order for the length and severity of these violations. Our team was tasked with creating a […]
The client was looking for a safer and more efficient way to transfer ore to the main course ore bin. The existing ore dribble chute was scanned in 3D and used to design a new dribble chute and platform. The new dribble chute design changed the location of discharge from a conveyor directly to course […]
Crush/Convey department wanted to implement a new system to lift and convey belt feeder drive motors to a roof opening area. Project objective was to evaluate existing capacity of ceiling beams for trolley and hoist system designed to remove and install belt feeder motors to a roof opening area. Bowman provided a load rating and […]
The existing counterweight on the 7B conveyor had a winch system with inadequate lug connections and was rigged at an improper angle, which created structural integrity issues. Bowman calculated the take-up weight on lateral beams to size counterweight box and evaluated counterweight lifting methods compared to the existing winch system. Bowman prepared an economic trade-off […]
One of our country’s most important historical sites is yielding more information, thanks to modern technology. Thomas Jefferson’s home, Monticello, was a working, 5,000-acre plantation that was home to Jefferson and hundreds of other people. For several decades, archeologists have been piecing together artifacts and other remnant traces of the inhabitants of the 1800s, and […]
Bowman was tapped to provide 3D laser scanning services for the renovation of Hubbard Hall at Texas Woman’s University. The final model provided the client with highly accurate, detailed documentation of the entire space.
Bowman’s 3D laser scanning, drone intelligence and modeling teams collaborated with the client, its vendors and consultants to create a variety of documents supporting the reconfiguration of a manufacturing plant.
Bowman was tapped to provide 3D laser scanning and as-built documentation for the expansion of the Grand Concourse facility at the Bronx Museum of the Arts. The entire process was completed in just two weeks.
Bowman provided engineering services for a construction drawing package for access road grading and drainage improvements. The haul roads were severely damage during storm events so collection, conveyance channels, sediment traps and culverts were designed to manage a 25-year, 24-hour storm event. The design also included a paving plan for specific haul road sections to […]
