 Industrial Project Award
S&K to Recoat Two Moveable Bridges
The Oregon Department of Transportation awarded a contract of $4,841,060 to S&K Painting, Inc. (Clackamas, OR) to clean and recoat structural steel surfaces on two moveable bridges on the Pacific coast. The Bullards Bridge (pictured), a vertical lift bridge, carries US 101 over the Coquille River and is 702-foot-long by 26-foot-wide. The bascule bridge over the South Slough measures 1,194-foot-long by 40-foot-wide and allows fishing boats to access the processing facilities on the east side of the Charleston Boat Basin. The steel will be abrasive blast-cleaned to a Near-White finish (SSPC-SP 10) and recoated with a moisture-cured urethane system. The contract includes full containment of the existing coatings, some of which contain lead. The project also includes solvent cleaning stainless steel surfaces and performing repairs.
