Description

Fontenoy Engineering Inc. (FEI) played a vital role in the construction of the new, 1.2 billion dollar terminal 1 at San Francisco’s international airport. 

​

FEI was involved in this high profile project from day one, quickly building its relationship with the prime contractor (Hensel Phelps) and the airport.

​

The following are the main scopes that FEI were involved in, and completed for the on time construction of SFO’s new terminal 1:

• Installation of large diameter new storm drain,  sanitary sewer and water utilities. This included 20 foot deep excavation and installation of large utilities through a very narrow corridor, named “Miracle Alley” by the general contractor. 

• Excavation for all electrical and plumbing scopes underneath the new building footprint.

• Excavation of all structural pile caps, elevator pits, escalator pits and basement excavation.

• Mass import and grading for the new terminal 1 building slab. 

• Upon completion of work FEI installed high strength, PCC, airplane panels at international flight gate A1 in a timely manner as to not impede the flight schedule of the A380’s that were scheduled to board here.
