Plan Sheet / Specification Reference=
On the subject project at the Viejas Creek location the CIDH work is large and complex. Steel casings are involved and the work is wet. There is also Rock Socket work which extends the Pile into solid rock for a distance of 5M (16.4 LF). Because of the nature of this work large, heavy equipment must be used. Access to the work site is impossible from underneath the bridges on the equestrian trail because of its size and particularly because of environmental constraints. This work cannot be accomplished from the existing bridge because of the size and weight of the equipment required and the weight limitation of the existing structure. This leaves the only access to the work from the median of I-8. The access provided by Caltrans in the median is Approx. 30' wide. Some of the rigs being considered to do this work are 30' wide when extended. This leaves no room for sloping access ramps, stockpiling material etc. It would seem impossible to perform this scope of work within the area which has been cleared for access. How are we suppose to install these piles without room to accommodate the size of the equipment required to do the work?
