Today's #ThrowbackThursday is a salute to the teams on the super-secret projects around the country that don't get the hype that the public projects do. 🤐 Super-secret projects are often our biggest or most unique or most complicated - and as much as we'd like to shout about them from the rooftops - we can't. Like this past, super-secret project, for example. We'd love to tell you what it was or what we were doing there and why. But, as our grandpap used to say, "nobody likes a snitch." 😎 Super-secret projects: your secrets are safe with us. Super-secret project teams: we salute you (privately, without any details, of course.) Keep up the super secret, super work! #BuildOnUs #SuperSecretSuperWork #supersecretsalute #thankssecretteams #supersecretprojects #nobodylikesasnitch

We're not in Kansas anymore 🌪 Las week, our Rocky Mountain crew clicked their ruby-red steel toes to finish up our project for a private windfarm client in the Sunflower State 🌻 We performed a specialized void/pressure grouting scope of work at two turbines at the site to combat voids in the geology. Each site involved drilling primary and secondary holes, totaling approximately 1,540 linear feet with hole depths ranging from 40 to 60 feet. Overall the work helped improve the stability of the structures so that they can effectively harness that wind power that comes from somewhere over the rainbow 🌈 **Also available for the remediation of yellow brick roads and various Emerald City structures.** #BuildOnUs #windpower #Kansas #noplacelikehome #voidgrouting #notinkansasanymore

He hails from the Great White North, he calls Pittsburgh home and his favorite hockey team is the Boston Bruins... He also will also publicly (and bravely) admit to liking the (Canadian, for the record) band Nickleback... 🙃 Catch some industry wisdom from our geographically and musically mysterious President, Jeff Grieder, P.Eng. by reading on 👇🏻 #BuildOnUs #GettoknowJeff
We asked Jeff Grieder, President of Nicholson Construction questions! ❓❓❓ Check out the answers here⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eXEN3k9c

Today, the #ThrowbackThursday time machine takes us to the City by the Bay - San Francisco - and one of the most intricate grouting operations we've ever performed in one of the largest cities in the country. Picture it: San Francisco was building it's first new subway line in four decades. The new Central Subway is a 1.7-mile extension of the Third Street light rail line, known as the T-Third, includes one surface station and three underground stations. Twin, 1.6-mile-long bored tunnels were completed in April 2015 in advance of the three underground stations using two, 20.6-foot diameter tunnel boring machines. To make sure that the buildings along the TBM's route experienced little-to-no settlement, we set up shop inside a deep shaft with a small drill rig and drilled an intricate pattern of horizontal holes into the ground below the buildings. We then grouted the ground between the buildings and the TBM to compensate for any potential movement while continuously monitoring the buildings' settlement. This epic operation was in addition to constructing diaphragm walls and a secant pile wall to support the various launch boxes and headwalls. They say you can't be bored in San Francisco - but we'd have to disagree. (You can actually be bored - and grouted and monitored.) Stay Golden! #BuildOnUs #CompensationGrouting #JetGrouting #TunnelingThursday #TBM #citybythebay

If the quality of our summer interns is indicative of how great the next generation of engineers will be - well, the future is pretty bright! Our summer interns were everywhere this summer doing all the things - and while it's our job to teach them the ins and outs of this industry, they always end up teaching us a few things, too. On National Interns Day, we are tipping our hardhats to Dalton, Owen, Dylan, Kyle, Benton, Zoe and Ryan - thank you for the hard work this summer. It's not goodbye - it's until we meet again! #BuildOnUs #ThankYouInterns #NationalInternsDay #UntilNextTime

🥂 Congratulations to Nicholson's own Adara Getsy, E.I.T. on earning one of the Deep Foundations Institute's Women in Deep Foundations grants. There was a lot of competition for grants this year - which really speaks to how many talented women are in deep foundations. We're grateful that the committee saw what we already know: Adara is going to be a force in our industry! And cheers to our very own Mary Ellen Large - who prioritizes making these opportunities happen for our female colleagues. GO TEAM! #BuildOnUs #TeamTuesday #womenindeepfoundations
