Scope of Works

BMBJV requires design and supply of shuttering for a Connection Culvert at Hammersmith Pumping Station (HAMPS). Details of the required culvert are outlined in this ITT and drawings for the required concrete design are also contained.

BMBJV is constructing the Connection Culvert as part of the Thames Tideway West (TTW) project. This network will divert all storm overflows that are currently being pumped into the River Thames into the Main Tideway Overflow Tunnel. The Culvert joins the Interception chamber to the CSO Shaft.

BMB JVs work in the Connection Culvert includes:

• Back blinding of the Secant Piles to ensure a slip surface to the culvert walls
• The concrete pour of walls and roof slabs of the culvert
• Casting of connecting walls from Culvert to Interception Chamber
