Salt Lake City Airport Undergoing $2.9B Expansion

By Lori Tobias

CEG CORRESPONDENT

Fifty-five years ago, the Salt Lake City International Airport was built to service about 10 million passengers, but five decades later, the Delta Air Lines hub now sees more than twice that number of travelers. There was no doubt it was time for a new airport, an airport designed for the “next generation” of travel. The first phase is set to open in 2020 and a second phase four years later. The new facility will be built to current earthquake standards and sized to meet Salt Lake’s growing and changing needs.

It will be easy to use, efficient, sustainable and cost-effective. At least that’s the plan for the $2.9 billion project. “The Airport has spent years assessing the best approach to a flexible design that meets operational needs, user convenience and sustainability,” said Nancy Volmer, director of Public Relations & Marketing, Salt Lake City Dept. of Airports. “The new terminal will be designed to meet Salt Lake City’s needs for decades to come and be adaptable to the constantly changing aviation industry. The new building will have state-of-the-art functionality and ease-of-use. The

new terminal will eliminate airplane-parking bottlenecks and allow airlines to get their planes back in the air more quickly, meaning fewer delays for passengers. A single terminal will eliminate redundant facilities for passenger check-in, security screening and baggage claim.” The new building also will aim for meeting a LEED Gold rating from the U.S. Green Building Council. But building a new airport in the shadow of the existing one is no small task.

Salt Lake’s growing and changing needs.

UDOT Completes Ogden Canyon Transportation Study The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) announces that the second phase of the Ogden Canyon Transportation Use Study is complete, and a final report is now available to the public. Over the past year, the Ogden Canyon Study team reviewed preliminary comments received from the public. It also met extensively with people and organizations that had specific concerns about the transportation options needed, or other concerns in the canyon. The Phase II report presents the final results of the study and the process by which they were determined, and is now available for review on the study website at udot.utah.gov/ogdencanyonstudy. During Phase II, the study team used information collected in the first phase to develop practicable concepts that could meet transportation needs and minimize

impacts. Focus groups made up of people who live, work, travel, and recreate in Ogden Canyon were formed to evaluate these concepts and give input. Representatives of local government and other agencies also participated in evaluating the concepts and providing feedback. A public open house was held on April 28, 2016, where study results were presented and additional public comment was gathered. For comparison, the Phase I report also is available at the study website shown above. In Phase I, completed in September 2015, the study team met with residents, business owners, and other stakeholders in Ogden Canyon. An online survey also was conducted, which received more than 900 responses and provided valuable information about the needs of canyon from the see CANYON page 8

A major road construction project in Arches National Park will begin in early 2017 with the bulk of work being accomplished March through October. The Devils Garden Campground will be closed March 1 through Oct. 31, 2017. The park has proposed work for the 2017 and 2018 seasons. However, if work progresses more quickly, the project may conclude in 2017. Project work will resurface, restore and rehabilitate approximately 26 mi. (42 km) of roads and pullouts in Arches National Park along the entrance road (from U.S. Highway 191 to the visitor center), main park road, the campground road and other spur roads and loops. Work will include pulverizing and resurfacing all paved roads; removing and replacing the bridge rail at Courthouse Wash bridge; formalizing pull-offs; conducting drainage work near the entrance station; constructing a new entry lane; constructing a roundabout along the entrance lane; and building a turnaround lane at The Windows loop road. The park anticipates that much of the pulverizing, paving and other work will occur at night in order to minimize impacts to visitor daytime travel and access. Work along the entrance road (from U.S. Highway 191 to the visitor center) could take six to eight weeks to complete. If work during the day becomes necessary, crews may complete entrance road and roundabout work with intermittent lane closures. Specific areas may require full road and area closures, such as at Devils Garden Campground, Delicate Arch road and The Windows road. Closures may be up to two weeks for each area. Phase one of the project includes the park entrance road and work from Devils Garden to the intersection of the Delicate Arch road. Phase two of the project includes work on the Delicate Arch and Windows roads, followed by work from the junction of Delicate Arch road to the park entrance station. While construction crews will make every effort to minimize disruption to visitor travel and activities during this project, visitors should expect delays and closures for much of the season. In order to maximize staff and visitor safety, the park may close Devils Garden, Delicate Arch and Windows area trails during construction in those areas. The park will reopen trails once area construction work is completed. Construction crews may use pilot cars and flaggers to control traffic day or night. When partial, daytime closures are in effect, crews will limit traffic delays to 30 minutes or less per work zone. There may be loose gravel on some roadway surfaces. Drivers should drive slowly and use extra caution through these areas. The park will post construction information and updates on its official website (https://www.nps.gov/arch/planyourvisit/construction.htm) and social media venues. The park also will provide information to local businesses, visitor bureaus and chambers of commerce as more specific construction dates and plans are determined. For more information, visit www.nps.gov. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Airport Expansion Includes New Terminal, Rental Facility AIRPORT from page 1

Construction (HD) have been on the job since 2013. “The project involves 4 million square feet of construction,” said Fred Groome, HD general supervisor. “That’s 1.1 million for the terminal and the concourses are 450,000 sq. ft. each. Parking is 1.7 million sq. ft. “What we’ve done is we have fenced ourselves separate. We are outside of security. Ninety-five percent of the construction will be done without any interface with existing operations. We have a zero impact on what they are doing day to day. We are like the neighbor next door. We communicate weekly with airport department heads.” The most important consideration is ensuring the existing airport is able to maintain operations, Groome said. Second to that is that the construction has zero impact on the ongoing travel operations at the airport. Although winter is upon the city that is the gateway to some of the country’s most acclaimed skiing, the snow will not slow down the work, Groome said. “That’s what we do, we are in construction,” he said. “We move the snow out of the way and keep going.” The bigger challenges include working next to the Great Salt Lake. “We have this nice basement structure going in,” Groome said. “We had to put in cut off walls and shoring systems to get us in that basement. We’re talking about

doing things to protect existing facilities while we dig out a lake bed. We have started reaching the bottom of the excavation. We had to drive piles and build our foundation system and get back to grade. That is probably the biggest challenge we have — just getting out

of the ground. “Because we are right next to the Great Salt Lake, there is water in layers, only five to seven feet below ground surface. As you dig you have water, you have to hold back the water. You have to maintain control of that water and of the

sediment. You have to monitor everything around you and have a good plan in place to get back to grade, which is to construct the tunnel.” Another challenge is the shortage of construction workers. One of the ways, HD deals with that is

by pre-fabricating components off site, then trucking them in. “For instance, all mechanical rooms, electrical rooms — instead of sending in individuals, you build shop type components. Piping would be done in large pieces and see AIRPORT page 8

With the deadline for completion less than four years away, crews are right on schedule and have already completed the new 500,000-sq.-ft. (46,451.5 sq m) consolidated rental facility.

brought in on tractor trailers. You could do the same thing with stairs, risers, fabricate longer lengths and drop them in with a crane. It saves you on efficiency and manpower and safety issues. It also helps with schedule.” Another aspect of the job calls for the installation of 7,000 stone columns. “We had five different cranes that were set up,” said Sebastiano Cardella, supervisor. “We used 100 and 200-ton cranes, Liebherr models. “We used the dry feed method to install the columns, which involves pumping air down the void created by the Vibro Machine. Once the stone columns were installed, there is a mix between concrete soil mix wall and conventional H pile and lagging shoring system.” With the deadline for completion less than four years away, crews are right on schedule and have already completed the new 500,000-sq.-ft.

rental facility. “Construction on the new rental car service facilities at Salt Lake City International Airport began in November 2014 and concluded in January 2016,” Volmer said. “The new buildings, currently in use by rental car providers, include a centralized Quick Turn Around (QTA) facility and three rental service sites (RSS). The QTA is used to wash, fuel and store vehicles and the RSS buildings are used for light maintenance and house administrative offices. “The completion of these facilities included 25,000 tons of asphalt paving delivered in 1,667 truckloads, 170 miles of electrical wiring and 19,000 cubic yards of concrete. The four facilities total 502,000 square feet The completion of these facilities marks a major milestone for the rebuild project.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Falcon Hill Project Under Way Officials from the U.S. Air Force, the state of Utah, real estate developer Woodbury Corporation and Lockheed Martin kicked off construction of a new building in the Falcon Hill National Aerospace Research Park at a ceremonial groundbreaking event on Dec. 2. “The Falcon Hill project is a leading example of unprecedented partnerships making a difference in Utah communities,” said Gov. Gary R. Herbert. “We welcome Lockheed Martin’s expansion at Falcon Hill and the potential it will bring to attract additional high-paying jobs to our state.” The event followed an October announcement that Lockheed Martin’s program management offices for the Air Force’s Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) will be located in the building. GBSD is a competition to replace the Air Force’s Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile system with a modern and capable integrated weapon system. Lockheed Martin is leasing 25,000 sq. ft. (2,322.5 sq m) of office space and technology development capability in the new, 75,000-sq.-ft. (6,967.7 sq m) building. The facility will include high-tech laboratory space to enhance collaboration with local Air

Force officials and facilitate Air Force ownership and access to the GBSD technical baseline. The company expects to move into the new facility in August 2017. “The new facility at Falcon Hill is representative of Lockheed Martin’s commitment to building our presence in Utah to support Air Force intercontinental ballistic missile contract competitions,” said John Karas, Lockheed Martin vice president and GBSD program manager. “If we are selected to move forward with GBSD, our office at Hill Air Force Base will allow for close collaboration with the Air Force, access to the strong aerospace and defense industry in the state and support from a vibrant community of veterans, engineers and scientists we will need to execute this important mission.” The new office also will create opportunities for collaboration with Lockheed Martin employees in the Hill Air Force Base area who currently work on Minuteman III sustainment programs and aircraft like the F-35 Lightning II and F-22 Raptor.
