EXPERIENCE Lake Pend Oreille Bridge 3.9, Sandpoint, Idaho Kainan was the Project Manager on this $10 million project for the BNSF Railway Company. This project consisted of replacing 880 LF of existing railroad bridge over Lake Pend Oreille while the railroad remained active. With up to 50 trains per day traveling this bridge, AAC had 4-6 hour windows to drive pile, set pile caps, and replace structural steel bridge sections. This project required exhaustive coordination efforts with all parties involved to keep trains flowing and not delaying them beyond the scheduled 4-6 hour windows of work. AAC accomplished the complete project ahead of schedule, under budget, and without a single train delay.

Youngs Bay Bridge Lift Span Rehabilitation, Astoria, Oregon Kainan was the Project Manager on this $9 million project for the Oregon Department of Transportation. This project consists of retrofitting the mechanical lift span; including the replacement of motors, controls, brakes, bearings, gears, and associated mounting supports. High traffic volumes required all work to be conducted during night closures of the bridge. Considerable coordination efforts were necessary in order to maintain an efficient and safe work zone for various contractors. In addition to the machinery rehabilitation, new structural steel was installed, the complete structure was blasted and painted, and the operator's house was remodeled.

Burnside Bridge Lift Span Rehabilitation, Portland, Oregon Kainan was the Project Manager on this $8.3 million project retrofitting the Burnside Bridge in Portland, Oregon, for Multnomah County. Work involved replacement of controls, motors and brakes; design and installation of a water ballast system to compensate for replacement of the bascule lift span concrete deck. Due to the high volume of marine and vehicular traffic utilizing the Bridge, AAC was required to maintain lift capabilities and two lanes of traffic for the majority of the project. Replacement of the lift span concrete deck was further complicated by the need to rehabilitate the lift span machinery during the same time. The project's most complicated piece of work was replacing the east counterweight trunnion bearings, requiring AAC to design a synchronous hydraulic lift system capable of lifting 4800 tons. The counterweight was suspended by eight 4-inch diameter rods while crews worked around the clock over a three-week period to replace the bearings. Several unknown obstacles arose during the work, which AAC was able to overcome to complete the work ahead of schedule.

His responsibilities included coordinating the work of the entire design team and serving as the primary liaison with the contractor, Wildish, and ODOT's Project Manager. The project was completed on time and under budget in spite of several redesigns due to changes in site conditions and a delay in the construction and maintenance agreement with a railroad. Traffic staging plans and bridge designs were redesigned under tight time constraints to keep the project on schedule. This structure also set a design record in Oregon for the longest single unit precast girder bridge, spanning over 183 feet. This span allowed the contractor to construct a bridge over the rail and roadway rights-of-way without falsework in the railroad clearance envelope.

Central Oregon Highway Bridges Design-Build, Malheur and Harney Counties, Oregon As Project Manager for this $25.5 million design-build project, John provided QA/QC program oversight. Primary project components included replacement of 16 bridges and associated highway construction spanning 140 miles, as well as realignment of one section on US 20. His responsibilities included coordinating the work of the entire design team and serving as the primary liaison with the contractor, Wildish, and ODOT's project manager. The project included interim milestones for non-restricted freight traffic that required aggressive design schedules and environmental permitting strategies. The project was completed on time, on budget, and with no claims in spite of mid-project changes in COE jurisdictional wetland boundaries that required traffic and bridge staging redesigns.
