BRIDGING THE GAP Kraemer North America Sets Final Spans On $56M Seattle Project

The newly constructed Northgate Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge is 1,900 ft. in length and spans 10 lanes of I-5 in the Northgate neighborhood.

By Lori Tobias CEG CORRESPONDENT

Crews with Kraemer North America general contractor recently set the final two of 16 steel spans on a $56 million project to create a pedestrian-bicycle bridge over I-5 in the north Seattle neighborhood of Northgate. The bridge project is funded by the nineyear, $930 million Levy to Move Seattle, approved by voters in 2015. “The massive western bridge span weighs more than 400,000 pounds and now stretches over both the southbound and express lanes of

I-5 just south of NE Northgate Way,” said Darrell Bulmer, spokesman of Seattle Department of Transportation [SDOT]. “It connects to the 200,000-pound eastern bridge segment installed above the northbound lanes of I-5 and to ramps built last year. “For trivia buffs, 400,000 pounds is twice the weight of a Argentinosaurus [the largest dinosaur ever discovered], or the equivalent weight of 56 Asian elephants, 30 T-rexes, or three 737 jets.” The Northgate Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge is 1,900 ft. in length and spans 10 lanes of I-5 in the Northgate neighborhood. The

125-ft. span above the northbound lane was installed over a weekend in June; the 234-ft. span over the southbound lane was set the following weekend. The installation of the steel spans required the closure of I-5 on two separate occasions. The stretch of Interstate sees approxiately 220,000 vehicles daily in both see BRIDGING page 6

New College Building...

Board Approves $70 Million for Arts, Education Complex at Oregon State The Oregon State University Board of Trustees unanimously approved construction of a new $70 million arts and education complex that will serve as a center for performing arts classes, programs and performances on the Corvallis campus. A $25 million lead gift from an anonymous donor, along with $10 million in other philanthropic gifts and $35 million in state of Oregon-paid bonds, will finance construction of the complex. “This arts and education complex will be a transformative addition to Oregon State University, the Willamette Valley and all of Oregon,” said OSU President F. King Alexander. “The complex will serve as a center of creativity and will fuse programs in music, theater, visual and digital arts and technology. This center is integral to the university’s land grant outreach mission and will help bring the arts to all Oregonians through education, performances and community engagement. We thank our donors, Governor Kate Brown and Oregon legislators for their support in helping make the dream of this arts complex soon become a reality.” The 49,000-sq.-ft. complex will include classrooms, offices, performance theaters and rehearsal rooms. It is expected to open in the 2022-23 academic year. The board also accepted a report detailing the university’s 10-year business forecast. Projections show that a commitment to funding renovations and capital renewal projects and pursuing enrollment initiatives that generate net revenue will allow the university to maintain a healthy financial position even with the impacts of the pandemic. “Looking ahead, while challenged by the pandemic, we forecast fewer short-term financial issues facing the university beginning in fiscal year 2024,” Alexander said. “We will take nothing for granted, however. We will continue to focus on managing and reducing the overall costs of the university; growing enrollment to provide for access to excellent higher education; and developing new programs that serve the university’s land grant mission of teaching, research and outreach, and contribute to financial stability.”

Post-tensioned steel cabling, additional carbon fiber wrapping and injections of a grout slurry material around the base of Pier 18 are part of the remaining work to be done on the high rise bridge.

The 49,000-sq.-ft. complex will include classrooms, offices, performance theaters and rehearsal rooms. It is expected to open in the 2022-23 academic year.

Additional Construction The board also approved moving ahead to renovate two buildings on the Corvallis campus: $16.35 million for Fairbanks Hall, the second oldest building on the Corvallis campus that includes classrooms, offices and gallery space serving the College of Liberal Arts; and $6 million for Graf Hall, which houses the College of Engineering’s robotics program. The Fairbanks Hall renovation will improve teaching, learning and gallery spaces and update seismic, access and HVAC systems to meet current code requirements. The Graf Hall renovation will expand facilities for the Collaborative Robotics and Intelligent Systems Institute and upgrade bathrooms and mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems. The board heard a briefing on planning related to the state land board’s December 2018 request that OSU explore with the Department of State Lands the potential transformation of part of the 91,000-acre Elliott State Forest into a state research forest that OSU’s College of Forestry would manage. During the state land board’s December 2020 meeting, university leaders presented a proposal for the research forest developed in collaboration with the Department of State Lands and an advisory committee of stakeholders. Following OSU’s presentation, the state land board, which is made up of Oregon’s governor, secretary of state

and state treasurer, voted unanimously to affirm its intention to decouple the Elliott State Forest from the Common School Fund and transfer management of the forest to OSU for a research forest. The state land board also directed the Department of State Lands to continue working with OSU and the advisory committee to finalize various elements of the proposal. Provost and Executive Vice President Edward Feser and College of Forestry Dean Tom DeLuca, who briefed the board of trustees on OSU’s proposal, said OSU’s management of the Elliott as a research forest is a unique opportunity to demonstrate how to integrate forest management, watershed protection, environmental and climate research, habitat protection, recreational use and timber production for the long-term benefit of Oregonians. “It is worth noting that no other state nationally has an 82,000-acre research forest serving this research and practical need,” Feser said. Feser and DeLuca indicated that they would continue to provide the OSU board updates on the university’s planning related to the Elliott. They said the plan would emphasize research outcomes, shared goals achieved with stakeholders and assurances of financial sustainability that would not place the university at risk. “We are very cautious in evaluating this opportunity,” said Alexander. “It will take time to work out the details.” 

West Seattle Bridge to Be Reconstructed By Kraemer N.A. The winning contractor to construct final repairs for the West Seattle High-Rise Bridge and Spokane Street Swing Bridge will be Kraemer North America. Kraemer had the best-scoring proposal based on technical merit, total price and interview, according to documents. The high rise bridge has been closed since March 2020 and an extended process was undertaken to determine whether to repair or replace the damaged 36-year-old structure. When Mayor Jenny Durkan chose the repair option, roughly 30 percent of the work to stabilize the bridge had been done by a design and construction team that included Kraemer NA. Epoxy had been injected into cracks, external (but inside the girders) post-tensioned steel cabling had been installed, the girders had been wrapped with carbon fiber reinforced polymer and the damaged bearing at Pier 18 had been released. Then a monitoring process began to judge how the bridge and the partial repairs would perform over the winter. Once completed (even tolerating 1 ft. of snow in February) the Seattle Department of Transportation issued a new Request for Qualifications for the remaining year’s worth of work on both the high rise and Spokane Street Swing Bridge which had also been found to have developed cracks, though of a somewhat different nature. SDOT estimated that the repair work on the high rise bridge would be $58 million and an additional $14 million for the Swing Bridge. That work will be more in the form of preventative maintenance including epoxy injections into cracks and carbon fiber wrapping both inside and outside the movable spans. Also planned are a controls system upgrade and refurbishment of the hydraulic cylinders that permit the two halves to spin clear of the river. More post -tensioned steel cabling, addition carbon fiber wrapping and injections of a grout slurry material around the base of Pier 18 (east side of the river) are part of the remaining work to be done on the high rise bridge. The high rise bridge work is expected to be complete and the bridge reopened to traffic by mid summer 2022. 

Complicated Curves, Angles Make Bridge Job a Challenge BRIDGING from page 1

directions, making the closures one of the biggest challenges of the job. “We were allowed to shut down I-5 for only 4.5 hours in each direction,” said Eric Strauch, SDOT project manager. “The two spans were fabricated off-site in Tacoma. The span over the northbound lanes was able to be transported as one unit out of Tacoma. The bigger southbound span was assembled in Tacoma, cut into four pieces and transported to the site.” Crews assembled that span in the median between I-5 northbound and the Express Lanes, where a wide flat shoulder served as the staging area. The contractractor opted to fabricate the span offsite then cut it into pieces in order to meet legal load requirements, according to Strauch.

The installation of the steel spans required the closure of I-5 on two separate occasions. The stretch of Interstate sees 220,000 vehicles daily in both directions, making the closures one of the biggest challenges of the job.

“When you look at it, the bridge is complicated with curves and angles,” he said. “It would have been very difficult to construct on site. So the contractor did the full fabrication in Tacoma and provided us with a superior product.” The spans were moved into place by remotely controlled, self-propelled transporters, then lifted by a 650-ton mobile crane. A 500-ton mobile crane and 350-ton crawler crane were also used on the job. The two steel spans were fabricated at Jesse Engineering in Tacoma. “Those were our final two spans to put in place,” said Strauch. “There is still a lot of electrical and handrail work. Our goal is to have it open by October 2.” see BRIDGING page 10

The bridge project is funded by the nine-year, $930 million Levy to Move Seattle, approved by voters in 2015.

Nine other spans feature concrete girders and were fabricated at Concrete Tech, also in Tacoma, Wash. Four other spans were cast in place.

The new bridge lands at North Seattle College on the west side and at 1st Ave. NE and NE 100th St., near the future light rail station, on the east side.

Plan to Raze Four Dams Clears Next Legal Hurdle

The ruling will allow the utility that runs the dams, PacifiCorp, to transfer its hydroelectric license jointly to the nonprofit Klamath River Renewal Corporation, Oregon and California.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) A proposal to bring down four hydroelectric dams near the California-Oregon border cleared a major regulatory hurdle, setting the stage for the largest dam demolition project in U.S. history to save imperiled migratory salmon. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission action comes after the demolition proposal almost fell apart last summer, but then a new agreement and additional funding revived it. The latest ruling will allow the utility that runs the dams, PacifiCorp, to transfer its hydroelectric license jointly to the nonprofit Klamath River Renewal Corporation, Oregon and California. Regulators still must approve the actual surrender of the license. Dam removal could start in 2023. The dams don’t store agricultural water, aren’t used for flood control and aren’t part of the 200,000-acre Klamath Project, an irrigation project further north that straddles the Oregon-California border. Removing the structures would affect homeowners who live around man-made lakes created by the dams. If the dams remained, PacifiCorp would likely have to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to retrofit the structures to comply with today’s environmental laws. As it is, the utility has said the electricity generated by the dams no longer makes up a significant part of its power portfolio. The demolition proposal foundered last summer after regulators initially balked at allowing PacifiCorp to completely exit the project. A new plan unveiled in November appears to address regulators’ concerns that the nonprofit entity overseeing the demolition would struggle if there were any cost overruns or liability issues.

The new plan makes Oregon and California equal partners in the demolition with the Klamath River Renewal Corporation and adds $45 million to the project's $450 million budget. The states and PacifiCorp, which is owned by billionaire Warren Buffett's company Berkshire Hathaway, will each provide one-third of the additional funds. Tribes on the lower Klamath River that have watched salmon struggle applauded the decision. Salmon are at the heart of the culture, beliefs and diet of a half-dozen regional tribes, including the Yurok and Karuk — both parties to the agreement — and they have suffered deeply from that loss. Recently, California accepted a petition to add Klamath-Trinity River spring chinook salmon to the state’s endangered species list. The aging dams were built before current environmental regulations and essentially cut the 253-mi.-long river in half for migrating salmon, whose numbers have been plummeting. Coho salmon from the river are listed as threatened under federal and California law, and their population has fallen anywhere from 52 percent to 95 percent. Spring chinook salmon, once the Klamath Basin’s largest run, has dwindled by 98 percent. Fall chinook, the last to persist in any significant numbers, have been so meager in the past few years that the Yurok Tribe canceled fishing for the first time in memory. In 2017, they bought fish at a grocery store for their annual salmon festival. Another tribe, the Karuk Tribe, said in a statement that the regulators’ decision “reflects the hard work of our partnership with PacifiCorp, California, Oregon and the Yurok Tribe. After this year’s massive fish kill, we need dam removal more than ever.” 

Project Part of $930M, Levy to Move Seattle Initiative

The weight of the new bridge — 400,000 lbs. — is twice the weight of an Argentinosaurus (the largest dinosaur ever discovered), or the equivalent weight of 56 Asian Elephants, 30 T-rexes or three 737 jets. BRIDGING from page 6

Nine other spans feature concrete girders and were fabricated at Concrete Tech, also in Tacoma. Four other spans were cast in place, said Bulmer. “This became part of a project to connect neighborhood biking/walking facilities,” Bulmer said. “It not only connects two communities, but also brings together networks for biking and walking as they intersect with other modes of transportation, such as light rail or buses.” Northgate Community The Northgate neighborhood is a major residential and employment destination that continues to grow, and with the completion of Sound Transit’s Link light rail station in 2021, is poised to become one of the region’s most active transit hubs. Currently, this stretch of I-5 divides the neighborhood, making travel on foot or bicycle from one side to the other a journey of at least 25 minutes. “The Northgate Pedestrian/Bike Bridge will improve access to communities, services and opportunities on the east and west sides of I-5 in Northgate and Licton

Springs, helping knit together a historically divided area,” according to the project website. “It’ll also reduces travel time for people walking and biking between the east and west sides of I-5. When complete, the bridge will help connect the neighborhood’s thriving job and retail centers with the rest of the city and region. The new bridge lands at North Seattle College on the west side and at 1st Ave. NE and NE 100th St., near the future light rail station, on the east side. The project consists of four main parts: ● Bridge spans over I-5; ● Western approach between North Seattle College and wetland area, connecting to College Way N and N 100th St.; ● Eastern approach between I-5 and 1st Ave NE at NE 100th St., near the King County Transit Center; ● Multi-use path along 1st Ave. NE; The bridge also complies with 2010 ADA Standards and includes: ● A bridge slope of 4.3 percent, except between the Sound Transit mezzanine and the NE 100th St. level, which is 8.1 per-
