Yes, we got licked ... but it’s not a total loss

an we get some tasty sprink les on that road slush ice cream cone? Maybe a drizzle of caramel? If you have not seen the meme, and there are a billion of them out there, it shows a picture of a scoop of black and brown snow slush on an ice cream cone to describe 2020. Yes, it has been a terrible year for everyone and everything, especially the rail industry, but I would like to think there is a good topping or two out there as a result of the pandemic. Technology is getting pushed along at a quicker pace. The Federal Railroad Administration blessed autonomous track inspection, which will make the process faster and more thorough, and the data will only improve. Images will become richer, and the whole system will turn more compact. This could be one of the greatest advancements for the industry in quite some time when you think Class 1s and other railroad companies can scan miles of track at once with instrumentation on multiple fleets. Virtual meetings are another necessity that came out of the pandemic and will be used more in the future. This could be extremely valuable when out in the field. Crews can show experts back in the office what exactly is going on with a project or piece of equipment, and if the workers do not have an answer for it, someone else might be able to provide a solution. Instead of waiting on a fix until the next day or two, this can be done immediately. However, in a lot of instances it will be nice to get back to the way things used to be done. Projects often call for workers

and personnel to be close together. There is really no other way to handle tunnel work without being in a confined area. Under the pandemic, one person coming down with COVID-19 in a crew could stall the entire operation for two weeks due to necessary quarantining. Many tests and inspections require more than one person in a tight locomotive cab. Amtrak was able to get around this with its quarantine train earlier in 2020 when it was testing Positive Train Control on tracks out east. This train came with a dining car, a sleeper car and a conference center car. Everyone was able to stay their required distance, and testing continued and was complete. More importantly, it kept people out of the cab, which can become crowded during the inspection process. That’s ideal during a pandemic, but it does not work during normal operations. You need to have extra hands in the cab to make sure the job is done right, so when we are finally past this blasphemous virus, getting back to working closer together will be a necessity. As you can see, there is some good coming out of 2020. Was it a disastrous year for everyone and everything? For the most part, yes, but the only way to get through it all is to see that silver lining in the horizon. We should be fortunate there is one for the railroad industry, and soon a continuous glow will show once more. I will take three scoops of that.

CIRCLE THE

PROBLEM Georgia DOT addresses traffic issues at intersection with a railroad roundabout

t was if Todd Price was working at the most popular drive-through in town. Not long after the completion of the first Georgia roundabout that included a set of railroad tracks in Sandersville, Price thought he would hang around the perimeters of the circle to get a feel as to how traffic was moving. What he was not expecting was people stopping and rolling down their car windows with a big smile on their face, and it really did not matter where he was standing. It could be on an ordinary street corner, or at another jobsite. People could not say enough. “We frequently have somebody just stop and tell us how much they love it, or

4 RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021

they roll down their window and say, ‘We really love this. Thank you for putting [the roundabout] in,’” Price told RT&S. Price is a district preconstruction engineer with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT). “I have been out on-site numerous times and had some feedback. Everyone seems to love it.” Getting over the fear It was not long ago when the commuters were full of hate. The S.R. 242 intersection that handled cross traffic going from Waco Mill Road to Hospital Road was wide open and offset at the railroad tracks. Accidents happened often at the intersection, and

some were severe. GDOT took a hard look at the traffic pattern around 2008 and was planning to construct a roundabout, but the state had never dealt with a roundabout and had reservations. “Constructing a full-blown roundabout with a railroad going through it I think just somewhat scared everyone away,” remarked Price. So GDOT went with Plan B, which involved constructing concrete islands on S.R. 242 to make Waco Mill Road and Hospital Road right-out only. The railroad tracks were right in between the islands. Left turns from S.R. 242 were restricted, which forced people to loop around to

connector roads to the east at Ridge Road or to the west near East Church Street. The solution did not exactly stick. “A lot of traffic would get on the railroad track and try to make left turns ... and to get from Waco Mill over to Hospital Road we began to notice traffic would make a right out of each one of those and just go around the end of the islands,” said Price. “So they were somewhat trying to use it as a roundabout configuration when it was built.” Local law enforcement was having a field day, and the number of tickets issued at the reconfigured interchange spiked. Pressure from local citizens and city officials put a stop to the police stakeout, which caused even more motorists to use the intersection the wrong way. People simply hated the set up, so Sandersville approached GDOT again in 2017 to come up with a solution. By then the state of Georgia had warmed up to the idea of roundabouts, and they started popping up throughout the region. The fear had lifted, and not a moment too soon. On top of the issues car drivers were facing, the short line railroad company, Sandersville Railroad, also was dealing with crossing gates being damaged. There is a timber mill on Waco Mill Road, resulting in a high number of logging trucks using the intersection and making a right turn. Many were clipping the crossing gate. GDOT allowed Sandersville Railroad to put guardrail around the crossing gate, but crews often had to go out and repair the guardrail due to the truck collisions. Sandersville Railroad had the same reservations as some of the city officials due to the fact there were not a whole lot of roundabouts in the country that involved a railroad (Georgia’s would be the third), but signed off on the plan. “A train going through the center of a roundabout was a new concept for the state,” said Price. “When we researched it early on, we only ran across a few in the entire U.S. Pressure came from that aspect knowing whatever we put on the ground had to work.” The short-liner did have one request: that the new roundabout did not require additional track. Sandersville Railroad chose concrete panels for its track across the intersection, and did not want to do any additional work. As it turned out, the width of the intersection, which was about 120 ft, fit a single-lane roundabout. With the thumbs up from both the

city and railroad, GDOT now had to educate itself how to design such a unique roundabout, and brought in expert Mark Lenters, P.E., with MSA Professional Services. Lenters had spent some time over in Europe, which has been building roundabouts for centuries, and brought his knowledge to the table for GDOT. Building islands and blisters Construction started in October of 2019. GDOT’s maintenance division came out and removed the concrete splitter islands. The asphalt pavement was then milled and work began on constructing the large circular center island that contained the

railroad tracks. Long concrete islands on S.R. 242 were constructed next before smaller concrete islands, red islands called “blisters”, were installed. The red blisters allow large trucks to circle the roundabout without causing any damage. Concrete islands were then built on Waco Mill Road and Hospital Road where the railroad crossing gates are housed. The road on the western approach of the roundabout had to be widened to accommodate the bump out, which helps traffic slow down as they enter the intersection. Sandersville Railroad is only in operation during the day, which usually results in anywhere between two and six trips

through the intersection. During construction, railroad flaggers stopped traffic when a train moved through. After the crossing gates were installed the asphalt was laid and the road was striped. It took two weeks to pour all of the islands, but then rainy weather hit the Sandersville area and was enough of a nuisance to stretch the project out to six weeks before all of the work was complete. The total cost of the project was $200,000, and a number of things were done to keep the cost down. GDOT’s maintenance division handling all of the needed demolition work for the job saved between $100,000 to $125,000. GDOT also wanted the roundabout to be well lit during nighttime hours, and the city of Sandersville donated four timber poles equipped with arms and lights. The poles were installed at the four corners of the roundabout and would have cost $200,000 to $250,000, according to Price. The railroad crossing gates also were recycled.

GDOT was able to initiate a few cost-saving measures.

RAIL BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION

he Kankakee River Bridge located in Wilmington, Ill., was part of the state of Illinois’ $1.7 billion high-speed rail program running between St. Louis and Chicago. The scope of the project was to upgrade from an existing single main to double main as well as replacing three rail structures originally constructed in the early 1900s. The critical path and main artery of the project involved building the eightspan, 604-ft-long rail bridge spanning the Kankakee River. The proposed structure would be built adjacent to the existing bridge through two stages of construction in order to provide minimal impact to existing rail traffic. The project included many aspects of heavy construction along with the new rail bridges such as upgrading three at-grade crossings, jack and bore utility relocations and extensive in-stream cofferdam work. What sets this project apart from similar in-stream construction efforts was outside-of-the-box thinking to tackle permitting restrictions as well as the contractors unique approach to modular cofferdam systems in the waterway. Along with these factors, successful acceleration and scheduling produced a great finished project in a short amount of time.

Securing the permit The previous Kankakee River Bridge spanned across the river for over 105 years, originally constructed in 1913. The old bridge was a five-span, open deck design with wood ties resting on two massive steel girders per span. The girders sat atop four large limestone block piers with spread footings resting on the bedrock bottom of the Kankakee River. The footings and piers for the new structure were constructed adjacent to the existing bridge with the footings being embedded 2 ft into the bedrock. The piers utilized riser blocks for staged construction without taking the existing main out of service until the new structural steel was in place and the new track was cut into its proposed alignment. In order to construct the permanent Kankakee River Bridge, a temporary work bridge also was built across the river. The temporary bridge allowed for the efficient transportation of equipment and materials needed to build the new piers and footings. As with any in-stream project, proper permitting was obtained to allow for new RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021 9

The first phase, which included a temporary bridge, was done in 90 days.

make an addendum to the permit involving the use of biodegradable hydraulic oil in all in-stream equipment. The contractor installed the biodegradable f luid into all of their in-stream equipment and built an armored ramp of clean stone along the shoreline of the Kankakee River. The ramp allowed for equipment access from the shoreline directly onto the bedrock bottom of the river. Entering the water along the shoreline was a main culprit of sediment disturbance and armoring the slope greatly minimized the amount of sediment released into the waterway. Once the access problem was resolved, the next major hurdle related to the acquisition of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources permit (IDNR). The IDNR permit pertained to the overall impact to the f low and upstream water elevations of the river. Upon meeting with the IDNR, crews learned of Wilmington’s history of ice jams, which are common to the Kankakee River during the colder season. The ice jams have a history of causing f looded conditions and the IDNR

required the temporary work bridge to be completely removed from the Kankakee River prior to the winter months. IDNR required a draft of both a 100-year f lood mitigation plan and emergency ice jam removal plan. Once both plans were approved, the contractor would need to accelerate their construction efforts in order to complete the first stage of the proposed Kankakee River Bridge before the end of the year. Speeding ahead ICC Group’s accelerated construction of the Kankakee River bridge was an impressive feat and was achieved with intelligent scheduling as well as a little help from mother nature. ICC Group was able to construct its 16-span temporary bridge, the nine piers and risers for the permanent structure and a set of 10 spans of structural steel to complete the first phase of bridge construction all within 90 in-stream working days. The weather late in the year cooperated and no major rainfall events meant

construction in the waterway. However, the same permits which allowed for the construction of the new bridge in the Kankakee River also created access and time constraints. There were two major permits acquired for the project and each dealt with different aspects of in-stream work. The Army Corps of Engineers permit pertained to more of the environmental aspects of the work in the waterway. The permit required monitoring of in-stream construction activities and the use of turbidity curtains to minimize impact and contain any sediment released from in-stream work. A major hurdle with the Army Corps permit was that it restricted access into the river. Permit conditions called for the use of extensive causeways in order to transfer equipment into the Kankakee River as well as the use of large stone work pads. It was essential to place equipment into the Kankakee River to efficiently construct not only the temporary work bridge but the permanent piers as well. The project manager was able to work with the Army Corps to

water levels remained manageable during construction. Once construction of the temp bridge started, ICC Group’s goal was to work their way up out of the water by pouring footings and piers as quickly as possible. If the footings and piers could be constructed, the temporary work bridge provided access to finish the risers and structural steel without being effected by heavy rainfall events that would cause the Kankakee River to spike in water elevation and f low. To accommodate this rapid construction, an additional addendum was made to the IDNR permit. The permit originally limited the number of cofferdams allowed in the river to two. During construction the impact of ICC Group’s modular cofferdam system was realized to be much less than what was originally proposed in the plans. We were able to prove that ICC Group could use three of their smaller, modular cofferdams and still impact the f low of the Kankakee River less than what was originally planned. This concept was

illustrated to the IDNR and once they approved it, it allowed for concrete forms to be placed much more effectively. By having three cofferdams, the contractor was able to always have a location to set forms. They could be stripped from one pier (after achieving the required break strength and cure) and immediately placed on the next footing. The third cofferdam allowed the contractor to always be one step ahead with his footings. Equally as impressive as the successful acceleration was that the contractor was able to do so without any major reportable injuries. After each standard morning briefing, ICC would hold a secondary briefing to cover relevant safety topics pertaining to the days scheduled tasks. Standard in-stream safety practices were followed such as the use of life jackets and boats for recovery. ICC also used large concrete blocks and strategically placed equipment to break the current for their workers when setting the required cofferdams.

Three that were unique ICC spent a considerable amount of effort in the preconstruction phase of the project, planning and strategizing their access, logistics, and schedule. Three unique construction methods that helped ICC successfully construct phase 1 in the narrow timeframe required by the IDNR permit were the contractor’s inf luence on the design of the temporary bridge and work platform, the modular cofferdam system, and some unique equipment attachments. ICC worked closely with Westbrook Associated Engineers, Inc., out of Spring Green, Wis., in the constructability and design of the temporary bridge. The temporary bridge consisted of 15 pile bents with 16 spans at 40 ft each for a total of 640 ft in length. Temporary bridges are fairly common in bridge construction over waterways, however it was how ICC’s team cleverly designed how the 15 pipe pile bents would be anchored into the bedrock that provided the efficiency and production necessary to contribute to the

RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021 11

advancement of the schedule. The 1.25-in.-diam. threaded anchors for the temp bridge columns were designed to be much longer than necessary, approximately 8 ft long in total with a 3-ft embedment in the rock. An underwater epoxy system was used to secure them in the bedrock. This allowed ICC to bolt them to a plate above the typical water line of the river, and provided ICC with easy access to very quickly and efficiently disassemble the temp bridge. ICC also custom fabricated a very thick heavy wall pipe about twice as long as the anchor bolt projection and welded a lifting lug attachment at the top. This heavy-duty pipe would slide down over the bolts. A cable was then attached to it from an excavator arm. The excavator would swing its arm left or right and it would snap the anchor bolt off cleanly at the bedrock. Secondly, the modular cofferdam system chosen by ICC allowed the contractor to quickly construct and dewater each cofferdam. The cofferdam

system was composed of linear segments of five-quantity, 1-cu-yd sand bags linked together. The inside of each bag has a 1-in. x 3-in. pine U-shaped frame. The bags are fastened together through this U-shaped frame. The bags are delivered compressed like an accordion. ICC filled the bags with sand utilizing a Bobcat and each five-bag unit weighed approximately 6.75 tons. Plastic tarps were f loated in the water and the sand bag units were set on top. The tarps were then wrapped on the outside and over the top to further minimize water infiltration. The bags have rigging loops in the corners, and the manufacturer supplied a specialty hoisting device for the five-bag unit. The five-bag units were set with the Link Belt 460 excavator or a crane, depending on the location. In areas where the water was above the first row of bags, two rows would be placed on the bottom, with one row on top in a pyramid-like section. The bags were a onetime use item. Once no longer needed, the sand was donated to a masonry contractor

with property adjacent to the site. Finally, three unique equipment attachments were used on this project by ICC and expedited tasks that would have otherwise been very difficult and time consuming. A custom-fabricated modular sandbag hoisting device was supplied by the manufacturer Drips, LLC. A very large 8-ft-diam. hydraulic rock saw attachment was used on a Link Belt 460 excavator in conjunction with an integrated GPS system to cut out the bedrock bottom of the Kankakee River in the wet for the proposed bridge pier footing embedment. This provided quick, clean cuts for each of the footings and set a consistent limit for rock removals. Rock bottom was very uneven and this really was the only efficient solution. Finally, a custom-fabricated air drill attachment for a mini excavator was used to drill holes for the 180-quantity temporary bridge pier anchors. This attachment allowed ICC to quickly drill each of the 12-quantity, 3-ft-deep holes at each pier bent.

DOUBLE DUTY Boron rods as a simple, low capital alternative for dual treatment of ties and timbers By Mark E. Mankowski, Ph.D., Matthew Konkler, Craig Bell, Grant Kirker, Ph.D., Stan Lebow, Ph.D., Jeffery Morrell, Ph.D., and James Renfroe

he Forest Products Laboratory (FPL), part of the USDA, in Madison, Wis., along with its new satellite laboratory in Starkville, Miss., have been involved in the examination and testing of wood preservative systems to improve durability of railroad ties and other wood products for the last 110 years. In keeping with the spirit of a pragmatic approach to research, FPL continues to devote a significant portion of its efforts toward applied research in wood preservation, often in collaboration with industry and university partners. In September of 2018, the FPL Starkville group partnered with Wood Care Systems, Kirkland, Wash., to establish a test to examine diffusion of boron from boron rods placed in green, high-moisture content, red and white oak timbers and ties. Premature replacement of crossties

and bridge timbers is extremely costly and labor intensive, making options for service life extension highly attractive. In recent years, traditional creosote treatment of timbers and ties has been enhanced by an initial treatment with soluble borate applied via dipping or pressure treatment. The diffusible boron penetrates through the wood to provide added internal protection after the timber or tie is over-treated with creosote. This dual treatment has been shown to greatly extend the service life of wood especially in high biodeterioration hazard areas. In 2012, the AWPA standardized dual creosote-borate treatments, specifying that borate pre-treatment retention must reach 0.30 lb per cubic foot boric acid equivalent (PCF BAE). The borate-treated member is then over-treated with the regular AWPA standard retention of creosote or copper

naphthenate. While the dual treatment process has caught on in the wood-treatment industry, some facilities that would like to perform this type of treatment cannot because of the initial cost to install a pressure cylinder or dipping system for the initial borate treatment. A possible alternative is internal treatment with borates using nonpressure applications similar to those used in remedial treatments of wood in service. Other research reported substantial boron diffusion when borate was added to ports drilled into timbers prior to pressure treatment with copper naphthenate. A more concentrated form of boron used for some remedial borate treatments is the borate rod, which can readily dissolve at wood moisture contents above 30 percent. Borate rods are solid, fused 98 percent disodium octaborate tetrahydrate (DOT) and have RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021 13

been shown to readily diffuse when used to remedially treat utility poles or timbers in service. Once fused, borate rods diffuse in treated timbers, boron levels can be monitored using chemical indicators sprayed on increment cores removed at various longitudinal and transverse points from the fused rod application point. Placing a sufficient quantity of boron rods in large bridge timbers and railroad ties at certain distances apart could provide a passive form of dual treatment, but this approach had not been previously studied. Borate rods installed in green, high-moisture content timber before the creosote Boultonizing treatment would most likely continue to diffuse after creosote treatment and after the member is installed. Boultonizing will lower moisture in the outer 1-2 in. of a larger wood member allowing for adequate creosote penetration, but still leaving high moisture in the interior of the wood for increased boron diffusion. Placing rods at specific locations along the length of a large timber should result in boron diffusion throughout the timber and potentially reach the specified AWPA level of 0.30 BAE. The overall objective of the project was to examine a cost-effective method for dual treatment for smaller operations that cannot afford to install equipment for borate pressure treatment. The goal of this initial study was to evaluate boron diffusion from borate rods in green, red and white oak bridge timbers over an 18-month exposure period at a severe test site. 14 RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021

Materials and methods For the study, timbers and borate rods were supplied by Wood Care Systems. Five red oak (Quercus rubra L.) and six white oak (Quercus alba L.) timbers measuring 10 in. x 10 in. x 10 ft were treated with borate rods. The rods measured 3 in. long and ¾ in. in diameter. Rods were placed in 5-in.-deep 13/16-in.-diam. holes spaced 13.3 in. apart along the length of green timbers (Figure 2). The rod size, quantity and placement were based on the amount of boron needed to effectively deliver a protective amount of chemical to the entire timber. Bore holes were plugged and then the timbers were pressure-treated with creosote at Appalachian Timber Services in Sutton, W.Va. For this treatment, holes were drilled in line with the center of the three red oak and three white oak timbers. Rods were inserted into pre-drilled holes that were sealed with a 1-in.-long 7/8-in.-diam. plastic plug. The unseasoned ties were loaded into a treatment cylinder and an 18to 22-in. vacuum was pulled while filling the cylinder with hot creosote. The timbers were boiled in creosote (Boultonizing) for 12 hours to condition the wood and remove some moisture after which the hot creosote was drained and an initial pressure of 40 psi (gauge) was applied. Hot creosote was then introduced into the cylinder and pressure was raised and held until the AWPA retention of 8 pcf for creosote was reached. The target uptake (determined by a gauge measuring creosote volume) was calculated by dividing the total cubic feet of wood in the charge by the desired pounds of creosote per cubic foot as determined by a gauge measuring creosote volume. Once the desired gauge retention was achieved, the pressure was released, the solution was drained and a final vacuum of 18 to 22 in. was pulled to relieve internal pressure and reduce the risk of bleeding. The freshly treated timbers were set on a drip pad for 24 hours or until no dripping was observed. The moisture in the interior of the timber would remain high during this process (80-100 percent) ensuring the initiation of boron diffusion after the creosote over treatment as rods dissolve at the fiber saturation point. The treated timbers were shipped to the Harrison Experimental Forest in the Desoto National Forest in Saucier, Miss., where they were placed in the field test in September 2018. Timbers were placed directly on the ground approximately 2 ft apart with the plugged rod holes facing upward (Figure 2).

Moisture content of the timbers was measured starting at six weeks after treatment by taking two 6-in. cores from each timber. Cores were placed in plastic drinking straws, with one end pre-stapled shut. The open end was then stapled shut in the field after collection. The straws were placed in a plastic zip-lock bag, kept on ice, and transported to the FPL laboratory. The cores were removed from the straws, weighed and dried at 60°C for 24 hours. This temperature was used as there was a concern that boron may be driven off at higher drying temperatures. The cores were conditioned in a desiccator for five to 10 minutes then re-weighed to obtain the dry weight. Differences between initial and final weights were used to calculate moisture content. After 11 weeks, the condition of the borate rods was monitored by removing the plugs from the rod holes for every other plug on the timbers and examining the rod condition using a flashlight. After 15 weeks, increment cores were taken in a cruciform pattern in three red oak and three white oak timbers starting at the second rod hole away from the end of the timber (Figure 3). This was repeated at the next rod hole from the end of the timber after 30 weeks and then the next rod holes at 50 and 80 weeks. Sampling was conducted by taking increment cores from longitudinal and tangential points in relation to the position of the boron treatment. Six-in.-long cores were taken with an 8-in. increment borer. Cores were taken longitudinally from the rod hole at 2 in., 4 in., and 6 in. in each direction (Figure 3, top). The 6-in. distance cores were positions 1 and 2. The 4-in. distance cores were positions 5 and 6. The 2-in. distance cores were positions 9 and 10. Cores also were taken in the tangential direction from the edge of the rod hole. These cores were 1.5 in. (positions 3 and 4) and 3 in. (positions 7 and 8) from the rod hole (Figure 3, top). The bridge timbers were sampled for moisture content at 6, 15, 30, 50, and 80 weeks and for boron content at 15, 30, and 50 weeks (Figure 3). Sampling was conducted in a progression that was assumed to be moving from areas of low to high boron concentration to minimize possible cross contamination of samples. Cores 6 in. from the rod hole were taken first—i.e., positions 1 and 2. The outer 3-in. tangential cores (positions 3 and 4) were taken next, and so forth. The cores were carefully pushed out of the increment borer into a plastic drinking

straw, stapled closed, bagged and put on ice. The increment borer was cleaned with deionized water and blown out with canned air between each sampling. Samples were transported to FPL, weighed, dried at 60°C for 24 hours and re-weighed to obtain moisture content. Dried cores were sprayed with curcumin indicator, allowed to dry for five minutes, then sprayed with salicylic acid indicator to observe boron penetration (Figure 3, bottom). The cores were then sectioned into inner 3-in. and outer 3-in. sections that were ground in a Wiley mill. Ground inner and outer samples were sent to Oregon State University where they were processed and analyzed for boron via the Azomethine H method as described in AWPA Standard A65. Results Rod condition at 11 weeks: Rod holes were either filled with water that prevented examination of the rods or they were empty, indicating the borate rods had completely dissolved 11 weeks after application.

cooler and wetter weather conditions at sampling. Elevated moisture levels for all periods sampled indicated that conditions were suitable for boron diffusion

(wood moisture 30 percent or higher). It is unknown whether the rods dissolved at all during the creosote treatment process; however, diffusion should have begun almost immediately since moisture contents of the timbers were above 60 percent in both species. Many rod holes inspected 11 weeks after treatment contained water that most likely aided in boron diffusion. Boron Indicator: Boron was well distributed longitudinally away from the treatment sites, particularly in positions near the rod hole. The inner core sections were generally stained darker, suggesting higher boron levels in the inner part of the timber at longitudinal sample points. Very little staining in cores removed from the tangential positions was observed, suggesting reduced boron movement. This was particularly true for positions 3 and 4 (3 in.) from the bore hole. It was noted that some staining was darker in the outer longitudinal positions (1 and 2) compared to the midway positions (5 and 6). This may have been from overlapping boron

diffusion from the adjacent rods in the timber (Figure 3).

The boron levels from all inner and outer cores (n = 60) are shown at the far left part of the chart. The research team also compared boron levels for the inner and outer sections of the cores, all longitudinal or tangential samples and the average of samples taken at each sampling point away from the rod hole (Figure 5). The average boron level in all cores increased over the sampling period indicating boron diffusion. Boron levels were higher in the inner core and longitudinal sampling points compared to the outer core sections and tangential sampling points. These results agree with previous studies showing that boron generally diffused faster longitudinally versus tangentially.

that reported in previous studies, perhaps because of the higher moisture contents observed in this study. It also is possible that the elevated temperatures used during pressure-treatment aided boron diffusion. Sampling and staining of cross sections cut from the small mining timbers treated similarly to the bridge timbers and exposed for 50 weeks at the test site also showed that boron levels were elevated longitudinally from the treatment sites but tangential movement was still limited. The boron (red) levels appeared to be highest around the initial rod placement spot, but penetration also was observed 2 in., 4 in. and 6 in. away. Pre-treatment of red and white oak bridge timbers with boron rods resulted in effective levels of boron near the point of application, but treatment patterns may need to be altered to produce complete protection across the timbers. The sampling points discussed here represent only a small fraction of the volume of these large timbers and further sampling is planned 1.5 to 2.5 years after installation. The research team also has crossties treated and sampled in the same fashion as described here. The FPL Starkville is currently beginning the cross-sectioning of the ties and timbers to visually examine boron diffusion at 1.5 and two years after treatment. The team expects to find much more even distribution of boron in the future as moisture contents remain high and diffusion continues. Conclusions The relatively fast, non-destructive, cruciform sampling pattern was useful for determining qualitative and quantitative boron distribution in the timbers. This pattern ensured limited destruction of the entire timbers creating an opportunity for repeated assessments over time. Passive dual treatment with fused borate rods resulted in the required boron loadings in large timbers of two hardwood species, but levels were lower in the outer and tangential locations away from where rods were placed. Substantial longitudinal diffusion was even observed for white oak, which suggests that treatment of low permeability hardwoods may be possible. The moisture content of both red and white oak timbers remained well above the 30 percent wood moisture content needed for boron diffusion for the total exposure time. As the fused boron rods dissolved, boron moved more longitudinally vs. tangentially, which was expected given the higher longitudinal permeability of these species. The lack of boron in the outer, tangential direction from the boron rods is of concern given that the rods appear to have completely dissolved, but it is important to note that boron should continue to diffuse through the timbers to become more evenly distributed over time as long as the moisture content remains above 30 percent. Rod-installation patterns and dosages may need to be modified to achieve more uniform boron diffusion. It also must be noted that the sampling points represented only a small fraction of the volume of these large timbers and further sampling is planned.

FLOOD RESILIENCY

BECOMING A SUPER Wrath of Superstorm Sandy has Metropolitan Transit Authority strengthening its subway stations By Christopher J. Taylor, P.E., Manuel M. Ramos, EIT, Luv Seghal, EIT, Daniel Weiss, P.E.

uperstorm Sandy catastrophically struck the New York metropolitan area, effectively suspending service across the entire Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) region and causing more than $5 billion of damage to the transit system. Storm surge infiltrated the belowgrade tunnels, stations, and critical facilities through vulnerable street-level stairs, vent gratings, manholes, elevator shafts, and access hatches and flooded the system with corrosive salt water. Damage was extensive and costly, and led to subway service interruptions well after flood waters receded due to repairs required for service to resume, significantly impacting affected communities. Superstorm Sandy underscored the need for greater resiliency to these types of events where flooding levels can exceed 10 ft and regional power systems are shut down limiting the activation of pumps. NYC collectively responded to this disastrous event with extensive repair, reconstruction, and hardening projects to restore the system and minimize the potential for

future flooding of the NYC subway system. In response to the hardening need, NYCT reached out to the consultant community to support several resiliency initiatives. NYCT set an ambitious goal of protecting all vulnerabilities subject to flooding in a Category 2 storm per NOAA’s Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes (SLOSH) model. Archive record research, field inspections, and survey revealed as many as 3,500 vulnerabilities across the system. To advance one critical early effort of the resiliency program, NYCT selected the Arup team to develop and evaluate resiliency measures to protect 14 critical fan plant facilities and 15 stations in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens from future flooding caused by storm surges. Getting to work The objectives of these early resiliency program projects was to identify vulnerabilities and viable near-term solutions to protect the fan plants, station facilities, connecting tunnel segments, and all associated street vulnerabilities from flood water infiltration

that would compromise critical NYCT systems infrastructure and can cause significant damage to the facility structures and running tunnels. The projects also required development of long-term solutions to protect facilities against the hydrostatic pressure above-grade associated with the design flood elevation at each location. To provide a second line of defense should tunnels or facilities flood, NYCT also required development of solutions to protect select-critical rooms within some of the facilities. NYCT established the design flood elevation (DFE) as SLOSH Category 2, plus an additional 3 vertical feet of protection to account for 1 ft of wave action, 1 ft of future sea level rise, and 1 ft of freeboard. With these criteria, protection against flood levels up to 15 ft above grade was required at certain vulnerable locations. Design criteria were established based on review of site-specific flood levels and were set at 10 ft for egress hatches, sidewalk entry stairs, flood doors, and manholes. Flood level protection was set at 14 ft for sidewalk vent shafts based on expected flooding RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021 19

levels and vent shaft structural capacity and was based on site-specific flood level risks for above-grade fan plants. Work included extensive mapping, inspections, and archive research of existing facilities to inventory of existing vulnerabilities, review of existing industry available resiliency products, coordination with manufacturers, and development and evaluation of resiliency concepts, as well as engineering through final design, development of bid documents, and design support services during construction for selected resiliency measures. A rigorous data collection and evaluation effort was undertaken to support the identification of flood vulnerabilities and design of mitigation measures. This included review of NYCT archive drawings, topographic survey, collection of utility records, and field inspections. This work established an inventory and assessment of existing conditions throughout the project limits. Field inspections were completed by a comprehensive team of engineers from different disciplines. To facilitate efficient inspections, a GIS database was developed to gather and organize as-built and survey information. The GIS database was integrated with the Arup Inspect iPad app to provide survey teams with record drawings that could be marked up in the field during site visits and allowed teams to include field observations and photographs to provide accurate digital data collection, track project progress, automatically develop documentation reports and efficiently support the development of design and construction documents. The use of the app also minimized repeat site visits which was especially important given the challenges involved 20 RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021

with securing time and NYCT supervision to inspect critical facilities below ground in the operating environment. Design efforts included inventory of thousands of vulnerabilities, development of resiliency concepts, final design, and construction support. Mitigation measures were designed to protect the NYCT system from future flooding and allow rapid restoration of service after future storm events. Active and passive flood protection solutions were developed with an eye towards limiting impacts on system operations and ventilation while minimizing impacts on maintenance needs and without compromising passenger accessibility or safety. Development of resiliency solutions within the timelines required and meeting the needs of NYCT required close coordination between manufacturers to modify available products and approaches and to develop new innovative approaches that met NYCT needs and responded to implementation and coordination requirements. Success also required unprecedented levels of cooperation between various consultant teams working on numerous NYCT efforts to identify the best solutions to meet common project needs and to adopt those solutions into each project to streamline both development effort and implementation schedules. A better entrance Subway entrances provide an easy path for ingress of floodwaters and they are plentiful. In the past, these had been protected with sand bags or welding plates across the opening. Ultimately, where deployable solutions were required, such as for stairs and

Strengthening the most vulnerable Street-level gratings provide perhaps the most substantial vulnerability since they efficiently connect the above- and below-grade environments by design to support ventilation—the area of grating within the critical flood zone in lower Manhattan is remarkable. It was estimated that each standard sidewalk grating would let up to 20,000 gal of water enter the subway system at only 1 ft of floodwater height, and the Arup projects included some 1,500 gratings in areas with flood heights over 10 ft in some locations. Past protection methods involved placing plywood or metal plates over the grates ahead of a storm event and securing them down with sandbags or fastening them to the sidewalk concrete. Due to the number of grates, this process was time consuming, did not provide adequate flood and leakage resistance, and was not sustainable. Arup worked with Floodbreak and NYCT to develop a Coastal Surge Mechanical Closure Device (CSMCD) for vent shafts that essentially involved a set of doors within a box that sits beneath the sidewalk vent grate in the vent shaft and holds back flood waters using panels that create a watertight seal through the weight of the flood waters that collect on top of them. Technical and performance requirements were established that included not only resistance to flood heights of 14 ft above sidewalk level, but also maintainability considerations and shop and field-testing requirements. The panels differed from previous deployed designs by NYCT to respond to flash flooding that self-deployed. When not in use, the panels of the new design are locked in the “stowed” position to allow for maximum ventilation

street gratings, NYCT required solutions that could be deployed quickly and with reasonable effort, and one that could be repeated over a substantial number of instances. Arup investigated numerous options for mitigating the station entrances. One option considered was to install marine flood doors at the base of the entrances, however, a major drawback of this approach was the extremely high-water pressures that resulted from the required 10-ft flood height above grade in some locations plus the depth of the stairs. To reduce the depth of water that must be resisted, a solution was sought at-grade. Arup worked with supplier ILC Dover to adapt their products to fit the challenge, and ultimately ILC Dover’s Stairwell Flex-Gate was developed and prototyped further, allowing straightforward retrofitting of an easily deployable solution, which met NYCT’s requirements.

performance to ensure safe operation of the subway system. In the hours before a storm, a NYCT worker can activate a concealed lock below the sidewalk vent grates to release the panels into the “deployed” position. After the floodwaters have subsided, a NYCT worker can then open the drain located on one of the panels and drain the water within the CSMCD. Once the drain has been closed, the panels can return to the “stowed” position. The design was developed so there is no need to remove the gratings to activate the CSMCDs, which was a critical consideration given the time and resource limitations during emergency preparation. NYCT and the Arup team coordinated with Floodbreak to develop a CSMCD design that addressed performance and operations and maintenance criteria. Key requirements were established for ventilation performance, flood-protection performance, and maintainability. Shop and field-testing protocols were established for testing CSMCD performance under total water pressure for leakage rates. There were numerous complications and considerations associated with the implementation of CSMCDs. These included the sheer number and various sizes and configurations of vent shafts, with both normal-duty and heavy-duty vent gratings depending on the grate-loading criteria. Many vent shafts are large banks serving fan plants in plazas, station areas, and parks. Vent shafts need to be accessed regularly for cleaning and structural inspections, which required that the design allowed for easy removal of the CSMCD door mechanism. Clearance between the street grating and structures or utilities within the vent bay also varied, and many utility “house connections” running transverse through the vent bay exist just below grating level, which required careful attention to CSMCD depth and often required multiple doors to reduce depth. Further, the flood load carried by the CSMCD is transmitted to the vent structure, and the configuration and the condition of vent structures varied. As such, a standardized CSMCD grate frame design was developed and site-specific sidewalk replacement and vent shaft rehabilitation was incorporated into contracts. The final installation leaves an improved sidewalk and flood protection that is entirely transparent to pedestrians. Based upon the CSMCD performance requirements, testing program, and implementation approach developed to protect the below-grade vent shafts, over 2,000 units were included across various construction contracts. The CSMCD program was

advanced as a new standard across other projects being advanced by NYCT through separate design efforts. Numerous construction contracts to implement these resiliency solutions are currently well underway or complete at this time. A strong fan base Fan plant facilities are critical to the safe operation of the subway system. They have large vent gratings and fans located atop shafts connected to the NYCT tunnels that provide natural ventilation of running tunnels during normal operations through the piston effect of trains moving through the tunnels and active ventilation during emergency operations through use of fans. The shafts also provide emergency egress pathways. These buildings tend to be located at the water’s edge to maximize ventilation performance and are typically found between the East River and the nearest station. Fan plants also present a major risk to flooding of the subway system since they often sit near the water’s edge and have large openings. Large banks of ventilation louvers in above-grade fan plant structures were located below the design flood level and presented a significant vulnerability during flooding.

Flooding of these facilities caused major damage to critical systems and mechanical equipment and led to flooding of tunnels. For below-grade fan plants, vent banks are typically large banks of gratings in sidewalks and plazas located in an area that is subject to flooding of over 10 ft in certain locations. As part of the Arup-led initiative, solutions were developed to protect 14 critical fan plant facilities identified by NYCT. The DFE at these facilities was as much as 15 ft of water height, which could cause major structural damage and water infiltration. Criteria for hardening of above-grade fan plant structures was based on site-specific requirements and considered the effect of static water (hydrostatic load), flowing water (hydrodynamic load) and impact forces from waves and floating objects. This required conversion of several of the above-grade fan plant locations into something of a bunker with concrete flood walls either replacing or surrounding the existing walls. Given that fan plants generally lied next to parks or sensitive developments, the final solution also was designed to be context sensitive. Design at each location was complex in that the facilities needed to remain functional throughout construction and provide efficient

FLOOD RESILIENCY

ventilation once long-term protection was in place. Maintenance access also is a critical design consideration at each of these facilities since large fans which provide emergency ventilation of the tunnels need to be removed and replaced. The size of these fans and associated fan changeout pathways resulted in very large door openings on the order of 10 ft by 10 ft. Arup worked with supplier PS Doors to modify their basic flood doors to the scale required. These doors and the buildings in general were designed to resist a minimum of 10 ft of floodwater height, with 5-ft-high breaking waves and 8,000-lb factored impact loads. An architecturally pleasing and structurally competent design was developed for each of the six above-grade facilities that met NYCT performance and maintenance requirements for regular operations and flood protection without the need for pre-storm deployment. Below-grade fan plants were protected by development of CSMCD designs and structural framing configurations for large grating banks located in plazas and on sidewalks. The effectiveness of each design was determined based on its ability to protect vulnerabilities from flooding. Solutions involved hardening of the facilities to resist hydraulic loading, sealing openings to be watertight, providing watertight doors, elevating vents above the critical flood level, and providing means to close off vent gratings automatically, and in some cases manually. Constructability was carefully considered in development of solutions, and approaches varied depending on existing site conditions and constraints. Numerous community and stakeholder outreach meetings also were held to develop solutions that met local needs and concerns. In most cases, the proposed solution provided permanent passive protection, in which case the flood protection is either permanently in place or “self-actuating” and no pre-storm deployment effort is required. Fans used during emergency situations must be able to operate at peak design capacity to provide life safety functions, which requires significant louver area. However, the size of vent gratings or louvers is directly related to the vulnerability they present, and to the complexity involved with sealing the grates against flooding. As such, fan plant surveys were conducted to determine the grating area available and the amount required to ensure peak performance. Through this effort, Arup determined that many of the existing louvers could be replaced with more efficient louvers. Retrofitting existing louvers with more efficient louvers reduced the total louver area 22 RT&S Track Buyer’s Guide // 2021

U.S. and the world. The main lessons learned by the Arup team were:

and maintenance burden, and confidence during future emergency preparation; • Utilize a BIM-centric design approach and effective and efficient data management for design- and construction-phase services; • Maintain awareness of real estate boundaries so that improvements can be developed quickly without need for easements or property transfers. Develop contextsensitive solutions to address external stakeholder concerns; • Carefully consider procurement issues to deal with advance or programmatic procurement of common materials where practical; • Adopt a pragmatic approach to near-term solutions. Use the Pareto principle where you get 80 percent of desired effect with 20 percent of effort; • Hold multi-project coordination meetings to maximize lessons learned, streamline efforts, and minimize demands on the client staff; • Carefully consider structural limitations of any building structures and adjacent properties; • Clearly define scope limits between adjacent contracts to avoid confusion, minimize coordination needs, define interfaces, and eliminate potential for missed vulnerabilities; and • Careful consideration of details to allow for mobilization and reuse of deployable solutions, including crating of itemized equipment and consumables like gaskets and hardware that might get lost or not be commonly available for replacement. Include directions and tools in crating.

• Establish project priorities and performance requirements very early on; • Agreement at project initiation of user group coordination and approval requirements; • Comprehensive, consistent, and accurate field investigations; • Continuous coordination with manufacturers and vendors throughout the development of solutions to capitalize on readily available and proven products to modify proven solutions for other applications to meet project-specific needs, to perform testing, and to ensure purposedesigned products can be delivered within desired timeframes; • Maximize use of common resiliency solutions between projects to minimize development, review, and approval time, with an eye toward future NYCT operations

Strong hardening Superstorm Sandy was an eye-opening experience for the entire region. NYCT embarked on an ambitious plan to mitigate flood vulnerabilities at their most critical facilities. Arup worked in partnership with NYCT and consultants working on other contracts to develop innovative near-term and longterm solutions to mitigate the various system vulnerabilities identified. This included working with specialty fabricators to develop products for these specific purposes to provide the required protection. These efforts resulted in innovative, purpose-driven resiliency solutions and new products that were not previously available on the market. The new resiliency approaches, standards, products, and systems will protect NYCT in the future from the disastrous effects of

required without impacting the fan performance, essentially providing a smaller louver area that produced the same pressure drop as the existing louvers. In some locations, this allowed for design of new facilities with less louvers at a higher elevation as the solution such as at Fan Plant 7207 located adjacent to the South Ferry/Whitehall Street station. Lessons learned A multi-office interdisciplinary team has been working with NYCT on this project for seven years. The NYCT Resiliency Program has been very effective and led to the development of new standards for flood protection. The consultant team led by Arup learned important lessons along the way that can help facilitate and expedite implementation of hardening and resiliency improvements to other vulnerable transit systems around the

flooding that were experienced from Superstorm Sandy. Through this effort it became clear that standardization and teamwork between NYCT, the consultant community, and suppliers is the best approach. It also became clear that resiliency is not a one-size-fits-all problem. To develop standard approaches, the variance in vulnerabilities, protection needs, and site-specific conditions need to be considered. In many cases, site-specific design is unavoidable, but the key is to try and minimize those requirements. For a system as large as NYCT, solutions should be permanent or else easily deployed ahead of a storm event. They also need to be cost effective, not impact normal operations, and require minimal maintenance. Working with NYCT, the consultant community, and suppliers led to innovative improvements that will reward future mitigation efforts. It is hoped that the solutions and recommendations developed through NYCT’s resiliency program will facilitate hardening and resiliency improvements to other vulnerable transit systems around the U.S. and the world. Over the last seven years, the MTA with the help of Arup and other consultants has implemented a robust resiliency program to harden its infrastructure and to protect its facilities, systems, and rolling stock by installing resiliency equipment in subway stations and under-river tunnels, waterproofing facilities, raising critical power and communications equipment above flood levels, rebuilding facilities at higher ground, and installing various protections such as marine doors, flood logs, and flood curtains at vulnerable station entrances. At the time of this writing, these mitigation strategies have been installed at most of the sites identified by NYCT as most critical.

Nord-Lock, Inc. 1051 Cambridge Drive Muskegon, MI 49444 (231) 799-1097 www.nord-lock.com We offer a superior bolt-securing system that provides safe locking for bolted joints even when exposed to severe vibration and dynamic load. The unique aspect of NordLock is that it doesn’t attempt to prevent relative motion, but instead only allows this motion to tighten rather than loosen the bolt. This is accomplished with a pair of washers whose inner surfaces act like cams with a greater ramp angle than the helix angle of the screw threads. On the opposite side are serrations that grip the bolt head and the mating surface. If the bolt attempts to move in the direction of loosening, a wedge is created and tension is actually increased.

HIGH CAPACITY I PRECISION I RELIABILITY

The Stabilizer The Plasser Dynamic Track Stabilizer PTS90C is designed for easy transport to work sites via road truck. The machine applies controlled, accurate stabilizing forces into the track structure at continuous speeds of up to 1.2 mph. All track is subject to settling due to traffic loads. This settling occurs irregularly and uncontrolled, resulting in track deterioration. Dynamic track stabilization is a combination of horizontal vibration and a vertical load on the track. The stabilizing unit is a well-proven design developed in 1975 with regular use on various railroads worldwide since 1978. The advantages of track stabilization include savings because of longer maintenance intervals and immediate reduction of slow orders after out of face track maintenance work.
