The replacement for the failed FIU Pedestrian Bridge has broken ground. While not visible on Google Maps, there is satellite imagery on Google Earth from 3/2025. So far it appears to be all ground work, on FIU campus and both sides of the canal (Sweetwater). The original bridge had a $16 million...
Perhaps you could explore synthetic chewing gum formulations, FDA approved surfactants and/or moisture scavenging surface treatment. Maybe consider a two-step process. Localized primer and application, followed by the coating/membrane. Polyisobutylene appears to be the main component, it is...
I think it depends on the type of material, epoxy, polyurethane, polyester, etc. Is it a 1-component or 2-component coating? How long was the original shelf-life, 6 months, 1-year or 2-years? Does the manufacturer keep retention samples for each batch that they inspected? Packaging can also make...
That is quite a large gap and many epoxies will generate a fairly high exothermic reaction at that thickness, resulting in either a large degree of shrinkage or even worse foaming. In order to inject the epoxy, you will want an epoxy with either a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio. Liquid epoxies will deliver...

No, the plywood cushion was a biscuit in the middle of the ring of reinforcing exiting the top of the pile. Once the follower enters the ground, there is no changing out the cushion.
The self-described 'whistleblower' is wrong. Yes, plywood cushions were used but the rebar and strands exiting the top of the piles were protected by a 20 foot long follower. I'm sure it was a pain to work with in the muck. Probably why the pile driver went broke.
If all there is at the Building Dept. is a basic plan, it was probably filed by the pool contractor. Whose name is on the submittal or filing and does it appear in the state contractor's license board?
The Millennium Effect or The Leaning Tower of New York City
The Real Deal: Nearly all prospective buyers have backed away from a troubled development site near the South Street Seaport, where a still-unfinished condo tower leans slightly to the north.
