The Neversink Tunnel Outlet Stilling Chambers, were designed and constructed in the late 1940's to early 1950's. The stilling chambers are massive underground concrete structures used to reduce the high water pressures for the New York City water supply. As a result of a grout patch failure at the lower chamber, the New York City Department of Environmental Protection requested the firm of Hazen and Sawyer, P.C. (H&S) to evaluate the structural integrity of the stilling chambers. H&S retained the services of Feld, Kaminetzky & Cohen, P.C. (FKC) to evaluate the concrete condition, strength and durability. FKC performed concrete core testing and non-destructive testing such as half-cell testing, impact-echo testing, and magnetic detection of rebars. |
