Camano Island HOA Bulkhead

DCG is currently providing structural design and permit compliance support for the replacement of a 340-ft-long timber bulkhead that sits at the base of a coastal bluff with 22 homes sitting atop it. Work has begun with a survey, geotechnical investigation, and comparison of wall concepts including concrete, sheet pile, soldier pile, and MSE wall systems. A soldier pile wall with concrete lagging has been selected. The full scope of work entails developing a design for the wall, obtaining approved permits, and providing construction support. The photo shown here is of the deteriorated timber bulkhead, prior to construction.
