tileCivil and Heavy Highway projects bring with them unique and special considerations in respect to heavy equipment cost and the challenges presented by the weather and subsurface conditions. The success or failure of these types of projects depend on accurate and detailed earthwork estimates, the on-time completion of the work and the ability to effectively prepare for and adjust to the challenges of the local climate.

TCH Consulting understands first-hand the physical dynamics of all of the components involved in the construction of civil and heavy highway projects and offer a wide range of estimating and consulting service experience to assist owners, contractors, developers, engineers and insurance/bonding companies in related matters.

tileThe way we do business is different… At TCH Consulting we build your estimates like you build your work – From the ground up.

Sure we have the latest in on-screen take-off systems and computerized estimating software but that’s just the tools we use – not our core strengths. Our extensive hands-on experience and vast technical knowledge provides our clients with detailed, competitive, reliable and accurate estimates every time.

EGRET MARSH REGIONAL STORMWATER PARK

civilcasestudy1_web_Stormwater park site plan

Indian River County’s first ATS (Algal Turf Scrubber) Egret Marsh Regional Stormwater Park was completed in 2010. The project is designed to remove dissolved nutrients from ten million gallons of IRFWCD’s canal water each day and will produce a usable byproduct of harvested algae. From the scrubber, cleaned water will flow by gravity through a series of polishing ponds and then into a wood stork habitat area. Finally, it will be returned to the canal system where it will eventually flow into the Indian River Lagoon.The Egret Marsh Stormwater Park represents an example of the complexity and detail of a county or municipal estimate of the 5-10 million dollar range. The estimate and take-off information developed for this project can be reviewed by clicking the links below.
