I-85, SR 53 US 129/SR 11, Jackson County, Georgia

Provided pavement evaluations and recommendation services on Interstate I-85, SR 53 & US 129/SR 11 in Jackson County, Georgia. The total length of the study is Eight (8) miles in each direction. The scope of services included providing pavement condition surveys and pavement design evaluations along with Geotechnical Engineering Recommendations along I-85 main line north and south bounds and for the ramps at the interchange of SR 53 and interchange at SR 11.

Caloosahatchee River West Basin Storage Reservoir (C-43 WBSR)

Developed by C-43 Water Management Builders for the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the C-43 West Basin Storage Reservoir is a 170,000-acre-foot infrastructure project designed to store excess freshwater from the Caloosahatchee River, stabilize salinity levels, and prevent algal blooms. MC Squared provided critical laboratory management, construction materials testing, and quality control, ensuring compliance with USACE standards. Our contributions—including testing 22 million cubic yards of embankment, 110,000 tons of soil-cement armoring, and 19 miles of soil-bentonite cutoff wall—have helped ensure the reservoir’s durability, reliability, and long-term impact on Florida’s water resources and communities.
