The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District requires a Contactor to perform concrete repairs for the Falls Project. The work will consist of three tasks: 1) repairing spalled concrete in the Intake Tower; 2) repairing spalled concrete on the parapet wall; and 3) replacing joint material in the parapet wall.

1.1 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT:

Falls Lake Dam is a high hazard potential dam located in Wake County, North Carolina at 35°56'30" N, 78°34'58" W. The Dam is in the upper part of the Neuse River Basin one mile upstream from the village of Falls; approximately 10 miles north of Raleigh and 17 miles east-southeast of Durham. The main body of the reservoir is in Wake and Durham counties with some embankments extending into Granville County. Construction of the project was authorized by Public Law 88-298 enacted by Congress on 27 October 1965. The dam was constructed for the purpose of flood risk management, water supply, fish and wildlife enhancement, recreation, and augmentation of low flows to further pollution abatement and water quality control. The project consists of an earth embankment dam, an uncontrolled chute spillway, and a concrete outlet works. A construction contract was awarded in 1978, completed in 1981, and permanent impoundment began in 1983. Operations and Project’s personnel have recently raised concerns about degradation of the input towers concrete structure as well as the parapet wall that sits along the dam’s crest.

1.2 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE:

3.0 Existing Conditions:

During an inspection in 2017, a concrete spall was noted on the underside of the roof deck on the Intake Tower. The roof area has exposed rebar which will continue to deteriorate and cause additional spalling, Photo 2. Dam personnel work beneath this roof so the spall needs repaired, to prevent any future spalling.

When an inspection was completed in 2019, deterioration of the parapet wall was noted. One area of concrete appears to have been damaged by impact from a vehicle, Photo 5. Other damaged areas appear to have spalled from deterioration or vandalism. The exposed concrete will continue to deteriorate and cause additional spalling. The exposed water stops will continue to breakdown from exposure to UV light. To prevent future damage, the spalled concrete needs to be repaired. Portions of the concrete have broken away exposing rebar and water stops.

Photos 3-5 show the deteriorated concrete.
