Project Description:
Triplett-King & Associates (TKA) is a member of the design-build team currently working on the I-85 Access Improvements at GSP Airport and the BMW Manufacturing Facility in Spartanburg County, South Carolina. This project consists of interstate widening and improvements, frontage road relocation, two grade separated intersections with I-85, and 6 new pre-stressed concrete beam bridges. This project requires the contractor to perform Quality Control (QC) on all earthwork and asphalt related items. TKA is responsible for performing all QC for the earthwork on the project including field testing, sampling, and document control for the contractor. The majority of the earthwork has been a cut-fill operation which are challenging due to the continuously changing strata. TKA has been able to facilitate the QC testing and inspection on a rigorous 7 day a-week schedule with no delays to the project.
In addition to the contract obligations related to QC, TKA is providing geometric checks on all structural elements of the project, performing random samplings and working jointly with SCDOT to incorporate the highest level of quality into the project.
