Selma, Alabama Flood Risk Management and Bank Stabilization Project Industry Day
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, will be conducting an industry day to discuss the proposed design of the flood risk management and bank stabilization project in the vicinity of downtown Selma, Alabama. The project is anticipated to consist of bank stabilization with approximately 1,000 linear feet of soldier-pile wall along the Alabama River. The soldier pile wall will be constructed to a top elevation of 110-ft NAVD88, and a secondary retaining wall will be constructed to a top elevation of 118-ft. Rip-rap protection will be placed at the toe of the wall to a top elevation of 90-ft. It is anticipated that soldier piles will be placed vertically into pre-drilled holes and grouted into place. Reinforced precast concrete lagging panels will be installed between each soldier pile creating a retaining wall structure. Tie-back anchors will be installed at multiple levels to provide lateral support. The NAICS Code for this project will be 237990 Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction.
