IMTT — Bayonne,NJ

Lahita Engineering provided complete foundation engineering services for the IMTT 5th Street #6 Oil Conversion Project. Our scope included the design of the foundation system, which featured pile caps interconnected with grade beams, supported by a combination of driven piles and helical piles.

In addition to design, our team was actively involved in construction-phase support. We monitored the on-site installation of piles and maintained detailed pile installation logs to verify compliance with design criteria and ensure construction quality throughout the process.

Rt. 80 Bridge over Howard Blvd. — Mt. Arlington & Roxbury,NJ

Lahita Engineering was engaged to develop a lift plan and rigging design for a contractor-specified crane. Our scope included analyzing the crane’s capacity for the required picks, determining optimal lift phases, and defining the areas the crane could safely reach during each phase of the operation.

In addition, our team designed a drive frame to be used for pile installation at the project’s abutment. This included the complete design of all structural connections and verification that the crane could safely lift and handle the drive frame throughout installation activities.

centre street bridge — nutley,NJ

The replacement of the Centre Street Bridge over the Third River required a temporary and permanent support of excavation design to allow for the installation of the new bridge foundation. Lahita Engineering was tasked with the design of a steel sheeting wall and tie back support of excavation. The shallow bedrock elevation required the design and installation of toe pins at the bottom edge of the sheeting wall in order to resist soil and surcharge pressures.

greenwich country day SCHOOL — greenwich, ct

Greenwich Country Day School’s original school building required temporary shoring during its expansion/construction project. A large portion of its foundation wall required removal while the remaining upper floors were supported on temporary steel posts and beams. Lahita Engineering designed the temporary shoring and provided construction support services during installation.

PARK AVE CONSTRUCTION MONITORING – HOBOKEN, NJ

This project required construction monitoring of the rear masonry façade wall during construction. A baseline survey was taken (using a total station) of targets placed on the wall before any work was implemented. Weekly surveys were completed to ensure that the masonry wall was not moving.

PARK AVE HELICAL PILE DESIGN – HOBOKEN, NJ

This project required design of helical piles for the contractor to satisfy contract drawing requirements. Pile type, size, helices, grout column diameter, spacing, required torque and depth were specified, along with all other required information.

MICRO-PILE DESIGN – HACKENSACK, NJ

This project required design of micro-piles for the contractor to satisfy contract drawing requirements. Casing size, free and bond lengths, grout column diameter, spacing, and depth were specified, along with all other required information.
