Project Description:
Triplett-King & Associates served as the QC firm on the on the I-85 Access Improvements at GSP Airport and the BMW Manufacturing Facility in Spartanburg County, South Carolina. This project consisted 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 required the contractor to perform Quality Control (QC) on all earthwork and asphalt related items. TKA was 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 was a cut-fill operation which are challenging due to the continuously changing strata. TKA was 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 provided geometric checks on all structural elements of the project, performed random samplings and workd jointly with SCDOT to incorporate the highest level of quality into the project.
