A flame trench, launch mount, or pad deck coming back damaged isn’t just a concrete problem — it’s a schedule problem. Every launch hits that concrete with heat, acoustic energy, and thermal shock most infrastructure never sees, and the higher the launch cadence, the faster that damage adds up. Whatever rehabilitation plan gets built has to hold up against the

Every industry has its own version of “the schedule can’t move.” In mining, refining, and heavy industrial work, it’s the plant shutdown. On a recent HydroDemolition scope, our crew removed roughly 300 cubic yards of concrete from mill units during a scheduled outage — and the deadline wasn’t soft. It was the day production restarted. Full stop. I’ve been doing

In 2008, Motiva’s Crude Expansion Project was transforming Port Arthur, Texas into the site of the largest oil-producing refinery in North America. The scale of the project was historic — and so were its demands. Among them: 50,000 concrete piles that needed to be cut. At the time, the industry standard was wall saws. Two operators. An excavator and its

When time, traffic, and safety are non-negotiable, innovation becomes the best tool in your box. That’s exactly how Ferrovial Construction — and its trusted partner Aggregate Technologies, Inc. — tackled the North Tarrant Express Capacity Improvements Project in Texas. With a job scope involving major road and bridge widening, the team turned to HydroDemolition for precision concrete removal. The result?

We’re proud to share that Aggregate Technologies, Inc. was spotlighted in the latest issue (Sept/Oct 2025) of Concrete Repair Bulletin — a nationally circulated publication by the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI). Disaster as a Catalyst: Pressing Reset on Strategy The 2018 collapse of a Miami pedestrian bridge prompted Harris County to review projects by the same engineering firm. An

TL;DR: Ferrovial Construction used hydrodemolition technology in the North Tarrant Express Capacity Improvements Project (NTE CIP) in Texas. This innovative method allowed for precise and environmentally sustainable demolition of bridge structures while maintaining worker safety and reducing public disruption. The approach involved recycling water, minimizing debris, and preserving existing rebar. The successful application of this technology marked a significant milestone
