Evaluating and Managing Risk: Replacement of the Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) Connector for the Kosciuszko Bridge in New York, New York
The Skanska/Kiewit/ECCO III team (SKE) in association with HNTB and Haley & Aldrich (HNTB/H&A) was awarded the design-build contract for Phase I of the Kosciuszko Bridge Replacement Project. HNTB/H&A was responsible for design of the Brooklyn connector which includes the construction of new staged filled embankments utilizing prefabricated modular retaining walls (T-Walls). The indicative plans called for the new alignment to be constructed beneath the existing, in-service, column-supported Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) using lightweight fill to avoid potential settlement impacts. The design-build team elected to use normal weight fill which led to unique design challenges of low overhead construction conditions and mitigation of potential construction impacts to the BQE on settlement sensitive shallow foundations. The subsurface investigation undertaken, derivation of soil parameters, and settlement assessment of the soils supporting the existing BQE and the deformation of the viaduct is discussed. A construction monitoring program was used to assess settlement predictions as they relate to the true behavior of the soils and structure.
