Abstract
The Pier T Marine Terminal is a new 375-acre (151.8 ha) container terminal being developed on the site of the former Long Beach Naval Complex. The Naval Complex was closed by the Navy in 1995 and turned over to the Long Beach Harbor Department for development. To meet the aggressive schedule for the development, a phased program for design and construction of the terminal was developed that allowed demolition, filling and generic site improvements to proceed in advance of a lease agreement with a tenant and while planning and design of the tenant-related improvements was accomplished. A program was developed that included 18 construction contracts totaling over $325 million, excluding cranes and equipment. This paper discusses the planning, design and construction aspects of the project.
