Kenall performed construction materials testing and pile load testing services for the new Martin Luther King, Jr. High School (formerly Alfred Lawless High School), a 195,000 square-ft. facility in the Lower Ninth Ward included within the 1.8-billion-dollar post-Hurricane Katrina reconstruction and renovation of City of New Orleans schools.

Our project support encompassed pile load testing services and construction material testing services, including field monitoring, testing, and inspections, in accordance with design engineerÍs specifications. Inspection, testing, and monitoring included plant inspection of the precast concrete piles, steel rebar inspection, concrete form inspection, monitoring the installation of piles, including vibration monitoring of surrounding instruction, and field and laboratory testing and inspection of various construction materials (i.e., steel, concrete, welds).
