DLR Phase 3
Main Contractor: Taylor Woodrow
Description
We were engaged on the DLR 3 Car Enhancement
project at Royal Victoria Station. This was the
fifth station which we have been involved in with
Taylor Woodrow Construction. The scheme involved
platform extension on all DLR stations. We commenced
work at Royal Victoria Station in mid February 2009.
The site set up works included grading and levelling
of ballast, construction of pedestrian walkways with
Type1 material, installation of trackside hoardings
during engineering hours. Enabling works such as
construction of piling mats for the piling
contractor was also part
of our works. We had two excavators and two
dumpers in attendance to the pliers for the duration
of their works.
Once the piling was complete and the pile
integrity verified our work on the construction of
the pile caps could begin. This involved numerous
hand dug slit trenches to verify no services were
present in the areas to be excavated. Access to our
work area was restricted due to the nature of the
work and the close proximity of the tracks and this
had to be considered as a serious hazard during the
planning and construction process. All concrete pile
caps and other concrete bases were waterproofed
prior to back fill. Construction of fair-faced
finished concrete supporting spine walls were cast
on the
pile caps. These walls support the precast
concrete units which were installed at a later date.
Works completed on time and to budget.
