Story

When the City of Muskegon needed to improve its water filtration plant, Muskegon Construction Company made it happen. With the facility located on the Lake Michigan shoreline, Muskegon Construction Company had to work quickly to beat heavy snowfall. The building was enclosed and the exterior completed before winter arrived. The corridor connecting the new building to the existing plant had to be built over a 70-year old, underground, concrete tank. The locations of the support columns in the tank were unknown, so MCC sent divers into the basin to determine their precise location. Features: • Auger-cast pile foundations • Concrete and masonry enclosures, pre-cast roof planks • Chemical spill containment areas • Computerized chemical feed system • Emergency generator system • New boilers and hot water heaters
