One of Truesdell Corporation’s great strengths is its ability to react and respond to emergency repair projects at a moments notice. Recently, the City of Flagstaff, Arizona called late on a Friday afternoon with an emergency repair requirement. A railroad structure had been dangerously comprised and trains were being held up. By early the next morning, a fully equipped crew had been mobilized the 125 miles to the job site and the repair was completed on time. |
Truesdell Corporation’s professional expertise extends from residential slab crack repair to multimillion-dollar rehabilitation projects for customers nationwide.  Featured in Terry Bradshaw’s Pick-of-The-Week, a national television segment honoring successful, mid-size, American firms, Truesdell was described as an innovative and growing firm where tackling the “tough jobs” is common-place.
Among the more notable projects Truesdell has completed is the Arizona Dam Spillway Rehabilitation project; recipient of the prestigious 2003 Award of Excellence presented by the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI).This $2.5mil project consisted of repair and restoration of two spillway structures situated near the top of a dam which houses a hydroelectric power generating station. It was a significant project due to the remote location, difficult access and the multitude of methods and materials specified and used. Products included lithium nitrate to treat alkali-silica reaction (ASR), super low viscosity (SLV) epoxy for micro crack healer-sealer, expandable chemical urethane to stop multiple leaks, and a variety of conventional products including bagged, dry-mix shotcrete with added fibers.
The spillways were situated on a shear 300-foot tall cliff, where the only access available was from the top of the dam. Construction began in the summer with temperatures on the spillway slab reaching 130f degrees and continuing into the winter where mild freezing conditions were encountered. Dry process shotcrete was determined to be the most efficient and cost effective method to perform the repairs for logistical and quality reasons. Ultimately 11,000 bags of material were placed successfully without a single loss-time injury or accident even though much of the work was performed from ropes, swing stages, and custom system scaffolding.
