Bulkhead Evaluation in Foster City, CA
(click on images to enlarge)
The purpose of this inspection was to 1) investigate the Harborside Lagoon Bulhead, 2) determine its overall general condition, 3) provide a realistic estimate of repair/replacement costs. Construction details, specifications and plans were reviewed. The bulkhead was visually inspected from land as well as from the water. The wooden structure was measured, hammer sounded, probed, bored and photographed. Tie rods were selectively ultra-sonically tested. Selected deadman anchors were exposed and their condition determined. Borer infestation, metal corrosion and/or other structural failure were identified. Alternatives to the bulkhead structure were reviewed, associated costs for re-fitting and repair estimates were obtained and planning considerations were taken into review. . . |
3) Survey of Historical Vessel 'Carthaginian' in Hawaii
The Brig Carthaginian was built in 1920 by Friedr. Krupp, Kiel, Germany. It was originally rigged as a fore and aft topsail schooner and originally utilized in the European Coasting Trade as a cement and general cargo carrier. She was retired from service around 1970 and purchased by the Lahaina Restauration Foundation. |
