Projects

The project scope included the replacement of underground piping at the City University of New York – York College campus in Jamaica, Queens for the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY). The scope of work included replacement of a four-pipe system of underground piping comprised of chilled and heating hot water supply and return lines running from the central heating / cooling plant at York College to the HCPE Building approximately 150 feet away. The bulk of the piping system runs approximately 8 to 10 feet beneath Liberty Avenue.

KC was responsible for performing site survey; preparing demolition cut, traffic barrier, curb and sidewalk cut, and utility relocation drawings; preparing site restoration drawings for pavement, concrete curb, sidewalks, traffic signals, radar wiring, and landscaping; and preparing specifications for site work, trench excavation, shoring and sheeting, paving, concrete work, and traffic control. KC coordinated with a subsurface utility exploration (SUE) subconsultant for mark-out of existing utilities crossing the pipe route for use in preparing the survey and utility relocation plans.

KC also provided construction administration services, including site observation, shop drawing review, responding to Requests for Information (RFI), coordinating with New York City agencies to obtain the applicable work permits, and assisting with project closeout, including final inspections required to close out permits from the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) and other City agencies.
