Abstract
In 2015 a 13-foot diameter corrugated metal pip collapsed under 50+ feet of fill adjacent to I-64 in New Albany, Indiana. INDOT contracted Parsons to design an emergency geotechnical, structural, and environmental solution. Substantial flow through the pipe was reestablished just 5 weeks after the collapse, mitigating the risk of additional flooding or possible damage to the Interstate. Join us to learn about this project, which is an excellent example of teamwork between owner, engineer, permitting agencies, and contractor.
