Behar & Company, Inc. (RJ Behar) was contracted by the South Florida Water Management District to design a project to relocate Cypress Canal Weir #1 (GOLD4A), Project in Naples, FL. The new project will include the construction of a new, locally and remotely operated, water control structure in the new alignment of the Cypress Canal, approximately 1,275 ft east and 270 ft south of the existing weir. This project was originated as part of the Big Cypress Basin (BCB) Capital Prioritization initiative that supports the BCB 2018 - 2023 Strategic Plan for retrofitting old inefficient water control structures and building new structures to meet current or future design conditions. The structure will be located at the northwest corner of 23rd Street NW and the Cypress Canal, one block east of the existing weir. The replacement structure will be based on SFWMD design and construction guidelines. The new structure will include three new slide/weir gates, a three-cell box culvert to be used as a bridge, new stilling wells, a 10 ft x 10 ft control room, communications and miscellaneous appurtenances. The bridge will be 24 ft wide. Methodology & Approach: RJ Behar followed the most current version of the District Engineering Design Guidelines, Design Criteria Memorandums (DCM’s), Submittal Requirements and industry practice. The scope included hydraulic analyses using the HEC-RAS model, site design including grading and drainage. An Auto turn model was used to model the 55-ton crane in use by the District, new riprap design, electrical, structural and mechanical design. RJ Behar also prepared specifications and cost estimates. Quality Assurance/Quality Control: A project specific QA/QC plan was prepared for the project. Quality control was completed by other members of the team. Management Process: The schedule, budgets, and deliverables were monitored using spreadsheets and scheduling software.
