C--Manchester Pier Shimming Project

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is conducting market research for an anticipated solicitation for the Manchester Pier Shimming project. The project involves restoring the vertical load path of the pier by shimming all piles currently not in contact with the substructure. The objective is to re-establish positive bearing connections to ensure the structure can safely support the "Owner-Specified Vehicle" (OSV) load of 12,000 pounds. • The Manchester Pier is a timber pile structure measuring approximately 810 feet in length. • The pier has structural deficiencies due to the deterioration of bearing piles. • The applicable NAICS code is 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. • The work performed may include new work, reconstruction, rehabilitation, and repairs. • Specialty trade contractors are included in this industry if they are engaged in activities primarily related to heavy and civil engineering construction projects.
