Pile Driving Almost Finished
10/19/21 Pile-driving, which installs the piling – or vertical structure – for the support of excavation, began in September and is about 90% complete. We expect to complete this phase this week. More than 200 of these 60 feet-long steel I-beams will have been installed for Twinbrook Quarter
Phase One.
Excavation Continues Excavation will continue for the next few months as we dig to create the building's foundation. You'll see dump trucks coming and going from the site during the day, exclusively via Halpine Road and Rockville Pike, hauling away the excavated dirt.
Working to Minimize Dirt Off of the Site We have systems in place to clean each construction vehicle of dirt and debris before it leaves the construction site. Each truck traverses two separate "wash racks" before driving away. The wash racks (one of which is shown midway up the right side of the above photo) include grating and gravel that clean the dirt off of the tires. Construction team-members also drive street-sweeping vehicles on Halpine Road between Rockville Pike and the construction exits.
Construction Hours Typical hours of operation at the construction site are 7 AM–7 PM Monday through Friday and 9 AM - 7 PM on Saturday.
