Outstanding Rehabilitation & Repair Project
Outstanding Infrastructure Project
Math, Science & Shotcrete – 2024 Outstanding Architecture | New Construction Project
The repair was at a Middle School in Holly Springs, NC. Summer break had already started, so the situation was urgent: They needed a solution before school started back up, as one of the challenges included repair locations not just on campus but directly adjacent to class rooms.
Goose Pond Dam Improvements – 2024 Honorable Mention Project
The rehabilitation of the Goose Pond Dam was initiated by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services to address significant leaking of the dam that threatened multiple downstream towns. Improvements included flattening the downstream slope, updating and improving the seepage collection system along the downstream toe of the dam…

The Diversity of Shotcrete
It is truly paramount to recognize the diversity of solutions available because of the versatility that shotcrete offers. Shotcrete placement provided more efficient, sustainable and durable concrete solutions in these two cases than could have been achieved with a form-and-pour approach.
Relieving Water Pressure on Shotcrete Lining by Integrating a Drainage Mesh
Underground construction, especially a tunnel, is one of the most complex challenges in the field of civil engineering. Dolenco Drain is an innovative solution which addresses many of the difficulties with controlling or eliminating water pressure in an easy, safe, long-term, and cost-effective manner.
