RCC provides a win-win solution!
Integrated Industries Corporation is a full-service supplier of intermodal services, including container/chassis maintenance and repair, storage, and depot services. They had been operating an empty container chassis yard at the Barbours Cut facility, with congested access and severe storage limitations. Integrated Industries Corporation worked with Port Houston to identify a location within Port property that could alleviate these bottlenecks and provide a win-win solution. The result was C&C Houston Bayport LLC (C&C), a joint venture between Medlog and Integrated Industries Corporation to develop a 21.5-acre empty container and chassis yard on a site to the South of the Bayport Terminal on leased land from Port Houston. The site is accessed by a heavy haul road that connects Freight Station Road and Port Road.
C&C employed the services of Nigel Nixon & Partners, Inc. (NNPI) to assist in procuring contracts using a design-build process for the new facility. The empty yard comprised pavement, earthworks, drainage, utilities, minimal lighting, fencing, gates, and gatehouses. Roller Compacted Concrete was selected based on the best value of four different pavement sections, including ERCP and HMA options. Keith Abraham, Project Director for NNPI, stated, “We elected to use RCC for the speed, cost efficiency, and surface finish.” The prime contractor, Milord Company, contracted with A.G. Peltz Group to place 102,061 SY of 12.5” RCC. Continue on here for more details on this project.
