PALMETTO EQ TANK
Manatee County Wastewater Plant
8500 69th St E, Palmetto, FL 34221
Eastcoast Concrete embarked on a significant project with the Palmetto EQ Tank, marking an early partnership with Vogel Construction. Despite being a single structure, the sheer magnitude of the tank presented its own set of challenges.
Safety remained a top priority throughout the project, with meticulous planning and execution to mitigate risks associated with overhead operations. Despite the inherent challenges, the project was completed on time, a testament to the team's dedication and expertise.
The tank's colossal proportions, with walls towering at 25 feet tall and 4 feet thick, required innovative solutions for construction. Utilizing gang forms, the team meticulously crafted the structure, ensuring precision and strength. The use of overhead cranes to fly large panels into place added an extra layer of complexity, necessitating stringent safety measures to protect both employees and the job site.
In addition to the technical complexities, the project also faced pressure due to tight deadlines. However, through meticulous planning, efficient execution, and effective collaboration with Vogel Construction, Eastcoast Concrete successfully delivered the Palmetto EQ Tank within the specified timeframe.
The project exemplified the company's ability to overcome challenges, deliver quality results, and forge successful partnerships in the construction industry. By prioritizing safety, innovation, and timely delivery, Eastcoast Concrete continues to establish itself as a trusted leader in concrete construction.
