Work Part of $96M in Contracts for Trevi Companies
Trevi S.p.A., a division of Trevi Group, has secured new orders for work worth $86 million euros ($96 million USD) in the United States and elsewhere. New projects for the specialty deep foundations and geotechnical works contractor include safety work on the Herbert Hoover Dam in Florida and foundation works of the new headquarters of the Foundation Medicine in Boston.
North American subsidiary Treviicos will handle the Florida and Boston projects. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recently awarded Treviicos an additional task order for the rehabilitation of the Herbert Hoover Dike, which surrounds Lake Okeechobee in southern Florida. The new work continues several projects previously completed or currently being carried out by Treviicos along the dike. The overall contract includes the installation of a cutoff wall (for water cutoff) that extends for about 4 miles along the dike with depths reaching 30 meters. The methodology used, a combination of mechanical clamshell bucket and cutter under self-hardening mixture (Self Hardening Slurry - SHS), was developed and implemented by Treviicos for the first time in the industry during the first phase of the rehabilitation of the banks of the dam.
