Industry Day Goals

BUILDING STRONG®5

Canaveral project overview

Acquisition method is a supply contract to fabricate 2 FRP* (composite) Sector Gates

Obtain Feedback from Industry on the technical specification and biddability for fabricating new FRP* Sector Gate

Gov’t would like to partner with industry to support future infrastructure projects that improve the resiliency of the USACE portfolio

Information on upcoming St. Lucie FRP* Sector Gate project

*Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP)

MANUFACTURING METHODS-

FRP COMPOSITES

Pultrusion VARTM Wet Layup

• Large selection of “off the shelf” product lines with well defined properties and cross sections.

• Design guidance available with more being developed by the industry.

• Not capable of larger monolithic structures due to die restrictions. • Excellent for fabricating large monolithic structures.

• Easy embedment of components such as steel plates, foam cores, or sensors.

• Used for many field repair and rehabilitation applications.

• Performance depends on surface prep and field quality controls.

• ACI 440 standards available for wet layups on concrete.

LARGE SCALE APPLICATIONS

BUILDING STRONG®16

Conceptual Design Considerations from ERDC to USACE for connections

BUILDING STRONG®17

Canaveral Lock Eastern Sector Gate

Conceptual Design in P&S for Fabrication

Project will be a supply contract to design, fabricate and deliver the gates.

BUILDING STRONG®18

Canaveral Delivery Location

BUILDING STRONG®19

New gates will be delivered by barge for the Gov’t to install. Contractor will assist Gov’t with fit and finish of those gates. Surveys of touch points are being gathered by USACE maintenance crews.

Manatee Protection – Info Only

BUILDING STRONG®20

Manatee protection system are on all of the USACE Locks in Array System

Manatee protection system is under a separate USACE contractor that manages, maintains, and rehabilitates this system on all USACE Locks. That contractor will remove the array from the existing gates and will rehabilitate that array to install on new FRP gates.

Manatee Protection - Info Only

Note access door w/i screen manatee arrays skin side and timber side

BUILDING STRONG®22

Stilling well -water sensor manatee array system

Manatee Screens is a design feature and part of the submittal process. They can be screens, grates, etc., with a performance criteria of minimum size and the ability to withstand damage from marine life.
