REGULATORY & PERMITTING
PROCESS
• The Chicago River is designated as “Waters

federal law.
• The City was required to obtain permission
from Congress to construct the Riverwalk
into the river.
• On September 24, 2003, the U.S. House of Representatives
passed Water Resources Development Act H.R. 2557 allowing the
City to build:
 20 feet into the river beneath each bascule bridge (six total).
 25 feet between the bascule bridges.
 50 feet between Franklin and Lake Streets where the river
widens at the confluence of the three branches of the
Chicago River.

Structural Design
Challenges
PRIMARY STRUCTURAL DESIGN
CHALLENGES
• Expand the Riverfront
• Incorporate the existing dock wall and provide redundancy
• Poor soil conditions
• Maintain constructability in submerged conditions
• Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Coast Guard design criteria for vessel collision
• Avoid existing tunnels and submarine cables
• Maintain constructability beneath/adjacent to the bridges
Typical Room Design Challenges
Expand the Riverfront
• Various systems from floating docks to pile-supported piers were
considered
• Tieback system selected for cost and proven performance
• Reuse the existing dock wall to minimize cost and construction
impacts
• System must have redundancy in the event of an existing tie rod
failure
• Riverwalk platform designed as structural slab on grade to alleviate
settlement concerns
• Address utilities that must extend and pass through new dock wall
• Consider the constructability of various elements that will ultimately be
underwater
Typical Room Plan View

Jetty Plan View
Expand the Riverfront
Jetty Design Challenges
Expand the Riverfront
• Pier layout limited the choice of structural system
• Needed to avoid the existing tunnels beneath the river
• Same vessel collision criteria as the underbridges
• Must retain existing fill if existing timber piles and sheeting fail
Jetty Cross Section
Expand the Riverfront
Underbridge Design Challenges
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Miss submarine cables and existing tunnels
• Accommodate Coast Guard vessel collision criteria
• Maintain constructability
Typical Underbridge Plan View
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
Typical Underbridge Cross Section
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
Vessel Collision
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• 1,622 kip force parallel to channel
• 811 kip force perpendicular to channel
Vessel Collision
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Marine Angel – Largest
vessel to traverse both the
Mississippi and Chicago
Rivers
• 500 ft long and 70 ft wide
Vessel Collision
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
Vessel Collision
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Envelope behavior with two separate analyses
• LUSAS finite element software
• L-Pile for nonlinear soil structure interaction
• Deflection was not deemed to be a critical limit state
• Underbridges will create a substantial improvement to the protection
of the existing bridge houses in the event of an impact
Vessel Collision at State Street
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
Vessel Collision at State Street
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
Vessel Collision at Jetty Pier
Expand the Riverfront
Constructibility
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Drilled shafts had to be drilled adjacent to and beneath the bascule
bridges
• Constructing the interior shafts requires bridges to be open and
remain open for extended periods of time
• Underbridge drilled shaft cap is halfway underwater and must be
placed in the dry
Drilled Shafts

Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
“Bathtub” construction method chosen by Contractor
Drilled Shaft Cap
Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
• Contractor proposed to
place the bottom and side
primary reinforcement
within the precast “bathtub”
• Need to achieve adequate
bond and horizontal shear
transfer to ensure section
behaves monolithically
rather than as two separate
members
• Bar splicers and grooves

  • 48. • Creates continuity between rooms • Close to water • Custom canopy structures THE UNDERBRIDGES
  • 52. PRIMARY STRUCTURAL DESIGN CHALLENGES • Expand the Riverfront • Incorporate the existing dock wall and provide redundancy • Poor soil conditions • Maintain constructability in submerged conditions • Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • Coast Guard design criteria for vessel collision • Avoid existing tunnels and submarine cables • Maintain constructability beneath/adjacent to the bridges
  • 53. Typical Room Design Challenges Expand the Riverfront • Various systems from floating docks to pile-supported piers were considered • Tieback system selected for cost and proven performance • Reuse the existing dock wall to minimize cost and construction impacts • System must have redundancy in the event of an existing tie rod failure • Riverwalk platform designed as structural slab on grade to alleviate settlement concerns • Address utilities that must extend and pass through new dock wall • Consider the constructability of various elements that will ultimately be underwater
  • 54. Typical Room Plan View Expand the Riverfront
  • 55. Typical Room Cross Section Expand the Riverfront
  • 56. Assess the Existing Dock Wall Expand the Riverfront
  • 57. Connect New and Existing Systems Expand the Riverfront
  • 65. Jetty Plan View Expand the Riverfront
  • 66. Jetty Design Challenges Expand the Riverfront • Pier layout limited the choice of structural system • Needed to avoid the existing tunnels beneath the river • Same vessel collision criteria as the underbridges • Must retain existing fill if existing timber piles and sheeting fail
  • 67. Jetty Cross Section Expand the Riverfront
  • 68. Underbridge Design Challenges Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • Miss submarine cables and existing tunnels • Accommodate Coast Guard vessel collision criteria • Maintain constructability
  • 69. Typical Underbridge Plan View Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 70. Typical Underbridge Cross Section Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 71. Vessel Collision Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • 1,622 kip force parallel to channel • 811 kip force perpendicular to channel

  • 73. Vessel Collision Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 74. Vessel Collision Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • Envelope behavior with two separate analyses • LUSAS finite element software • L-Pile for nonlinear soil structure interaction • Deflection was not deemed to be a critical limit state • Underbridges will create a substantial improvement to the protection of the existing bridge houses in the event of an impact
  • 75. Vessel Collision at State Street Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 76. Vessel Collision at State Street Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 77. Vessel Collision at Jetty Pier Expand the Riverfront
  • 78. Constructibility Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • Drilled shafts had to be drilled adjacent to and beneath the bascule bridges • Constructing the interior shafts requires bridges to be open and remain open for extended periods of time • Underbridge drilled shaft cap is halfway underwater and must be placed in the dry
  • 79. Drilled Shafts Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 80. Drilled Shafts Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 81. Drilled Shafts Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges
  • 82. Drilled Shaft Cap Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges “Bathtub” construction method chosen by Contractor
  • 83. Drilled Shaft Cap Crossing Beneath the Bascule Bridges • Contractor proposed to place the bottom and side primary reinforcement within the precast “bathtub” • Need to achieve adequate bond and horizontal shear transfer to ensure section behaves monolithically rather than as two separate members • Bar splicers and grooves
