The Fred Creek Drainage Improvements project sought to stabilize eroding creek banks in Tulsa, Oklahoma while creating an attractive green space. Redi-Rock retaining walls were used to line the creek and control erosion. The walls were installed in sections to allow the creek flow to be diverted during construction. Finally, native plants were added to create a healthier ecosystem.

This document provides instructions for installing a Redi-Rock retaining wall. It begins with a pre-construction checklist that outlines important safety, engineering, planning, and material staging considerations. It then provides detailed instructions on constructing the leveling pad, setting the bottom row of blocks, and building successive rows of blocks. Specific guidance is given for open-graded stone, dense-graded stone, and concrete leveling pads. The document emphasizes compaction requirements and proper placement of drainage stone and geotextile fabric.
This document discusses various water applications for Redi-Rock retaining wall systems, including shoreline protection, marinas, open channels/flood control, water control, retention ponds, culverts & bridges, and river banks. It provides examples of projects utilizing Redi-Rock for these applications and highlights the engineering tools and analysis software available to design Redi-Rock walls for water features. The document also briefly discusses the installation process for Redi-Rock systems.

Tower Cranes vs. Mobile Cranes - Case History - Eagle West Cranes & EquipmentEagle West Cranes JB
Two similar construction projects used different crane strategies - one with four mobile cranes and the other with two tower cranes on mobile bases. The project using tower cranes saw substantially faster progress due to the cranes' ability to access materials across the large site with fewer units. This prevented delays and reduced costs through improved cycle times and less need for site roads and equipment, increasing revenue.
Eagle West Cranes was hired by Jacob Bros Construction to unload and install a two-piece vault for a highway construction project in Tsawwassen, BC. The site had limited access and soft ground conditions, making the work challenging. An Eagle West operator used a 180-ton crane to lift each vault piece from the truck and set it down at the back of the site. A 125-ton crane was then used to hoist and install the 20,000 pound vault pieces. The project superintendent from Jacob Bros praised Eagle West for their safe and efficient work and plans to hire them for future projects.
Eagle West Cranes was contracted by Imperial Signs Corporation to hoist two large signs approximately 120 feet for installation at the BCIT campus in Burnaby, BC. Using a 40 ton crane with jib and a 14' spreader bar, Eagle West safely completed the one-day project. Imperial Signs' Operations Manager commented that Eagle West is professional, organized, timely, focused on safety, and that they will work with Eagle West again and recommend them to others.
Stampede Crane & Rigging was hired by Alta Link to remove two old transmission towers and install two new, taller towers near live power lines in Calgary. Stampede used specialized equipment and precise safety practices, such as grounding equipment and towers, to ensure worker safety near the 138,000-240,000 volt lines. Alta Link's foreman praised Stampede's professionalism, safety expertise, and ability to complete the challenging three-day project replacing the towers near live lines.
