Dave White Memorial Award Recognizes “Most Improved Safety Program”

Saxonburg, PA: Brayman Construction Corporation is being recognized for its outstanding safety record by The International Foundation Association of Foundation Drilling (ADSC-IAFD). Brayman is the winner of the Dave White Memorial Award, which recognizes the “Most Improved Safety Program” of the ADSC member company whose Incident Rate has greatly improved over previous periods and who has experienced an obvious change in safety practices during the most recent three years.

Brayman is also being honored as a Zero Total Reportable Case (TRC) and Days Away and Restricted Duty/Job Transfer (DART)Combined Rates company that has demonstrated a proactive approach to safety using recognized safety practices. This award recognizes companies that achieve these remarkable safety records regardless of the person-hours worked. ADSC uses TRC and DART data that are based on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s incident rates as the basis for this award.

“Receiving the Dave White Memorial Award and receiving recognition for Zero TRC and DART is a great honor for our team. Achieving such recognition demonstrates our commitment to maintaining a safe work environment,” said Stephen Muck, Chairman and CEO of Brayman. “This recognition highlights our safety program driven by our Corporate Safety Director, Angela Ravenscroft, and her team of safety professionals who are committed to introducing positive changes and ensuring safety protocols are met without exception.”

Our motto, “Safety is Our Attitude for Life,” isn’t just a catchphrase at Brayman Construction; it defines our culture and directs our operations every single day. While many see safety as an obligation, we see it as a steadfast commitment. Our dedication to ensuring the well-being of everyone involved in our projects, from our team members to our clients and the public, sets us apart in the industry. We understand that words mean little without action.

“Brayman’s safety record is possible due to a combination of leadership’s commitment to making resources for safety a top priority by investing in the best equipment and training for our team, and our team’s commitment to approaching every job, every day through a safety-first lens,” said Angela Ravenscroft, Corporate Safety Director at Brayman. “It’s that dual commitment that makes all the difference. If you don’t have that, it’s really hard to achieve a safety record like ours. Everybody says safety is the most important thing, but at Brayman, it really is, and our record proves it.”

John E. Kosar Memorial Bridge Dedication at the Butler Country Club Golf Course

Brayman Construction Corporation, in collaboration with Advantage Steel & Construction, LLC, Brayman Precast, and Tunstall Engineering Group, constructed a memorial bridge at the Butler Country Club Golf Course honoring the late John Kosar of Butler County.

Brayman Construction Corporation, in collaboration with Advantage Steel & Construction, LLC, Brayman Precast, and Tunstall Engineering Group, constructed a memorial bridge honoring the late John Kosar of Butler County. The John E. Kosar Memorial Bridge was artfully designed to connect holes 10 and 11 of the Butler Country Club golf course. A bridge is a fitting tribute as John was known for building connections on the golf course and in the business community. Mr. Kosar served on the Board of Directors at Brayman Construction, where he gave generously of his time and knowledge to Brayman CEO and long-time friend, Steve Muck. Steve's commitment to this lasting tribute is a reflection of the profound impact that John had on both his personal and professional life.

The new memorial bridge replaced an existing pedestrian and golf cart bridge over a small lake on the course and was designed around the existing bridge members. The project was completed in several phases. Tunstall Engineering Group did the design on an accelerated basis, and crews worked off hours and at night to construct the project in just three short weeks for the bridge to be ready for a memorial service and ribbon-cutting event. The alternative schedule allowed the crews to work with minimal disruption to play on the course and without damage to the surrounding fairways and greens.

The project site had very limited laydown and work area available, so the demolition, steel erection, and precast installation were all marine-based and completed from the lake surrounding the new bridge. Albeit marine-based, minimal barge support from the lake was possible because Brayman Precast constructed the abutments and pier as “tubs” that were transported to the project, then installed and filled with concrete on-site. Advantage Steel fabricated weathering cambered structural steel, including zone painting, and then erected the material on-site. Precast also fabricated a concrete outlook slab at the center of the bridge to allow for pedestrians to pass golf carts, which can also be used for photo opportunities for events at the club. The wood timber deck and cart curb were installed along with a lighted, stainless steel cable railing. The abutments were backfilled, new gabion baskets were installed along the banks of the lake near the structure, and the approach cart paths to the bridge were paved.

Architecturally, the bridge seamlessly blends with the natural beauty of the golf course. A plaque honoring Mr. Kosar will also be hung in the clubhouse, ensuring that his legacy is not only remembered but celebrated by generations of golf enthusiasts. This bridge, however, is not merely a testament to architectural expertise; it is a heartfelt tribute to a cherished friend, a wise business mentor, and a long-time member of the Butler Country Club.

Brayman Construction and Trumbull Corporation are proud to announce a five-year Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Strategic Partnership for the Bayfront Parkway Improvement Project in Erie, PA. This is the longest OSHA Partnership in Erie’s history, reflecting a strong commitment to workplace safety and health.

The goals of this partnership include reducing the total number of days away from work injury and illness cases by 3%, controlling workplace hazards by assisting contractors with the implementation of an effective safety and health management system, conduct weekly self-inspections to reduce exposure of workers to safety and health hazards, and to maintain a continuous dialog that support various safety and health campaigns/initiatives.

“At Brayman, safety is not just a policy; it’s our way of life. This partnership with OSHA and Trumbull Corporation reinforces our long-standing dedication to ensuring the highest safety standards,” said Stephen Muck, Chairman and CEO of Brayman Construction.

Mark Gentile, President of Trumbull Corporation, added, “Our partnership with Brayman Construction has been built over several successful projects, each reinforcing our shared commitment to delivering a safe project. This partnership with OSHA, is another step in our collaborative journey, reflecting Safety as a shared core value, in every aspect of our work.”

“Securing an OSHA Strategic Partnership reflects our continual efforts to lead the industry in safety practices,” stated Angela Ravenscroft, Corporate Safety Director at Brayman Construction. “This achievement is another milestone in our ongoing mission to provide a safe working environment for everyone.”

Christopher Snedden, Assistant Area Director for OSHA stated, “Anytime OSHA and responsible contractors from the private sector can work together to minimize hazards in the workplace and decrease the number of injuries, the result is always positive. We commend Brayman Construction and Trumbull Corporation for taking a proactive approach in prioritizing safety and committing to ensuring safe working conditions.”

The Bayfront Parkway Improvement Project, valued at $111.7 million, aims to strengthen the connectivity within the city of Erie by enhancing accessibility and safety for all its users. This project is not just an infrastructural development; it’s a step towards a safer, more connected community.

About Trumbull Corporation:

Trumbull Corporation is an award-winning industry leader in heavy civil construction, having built hundreds of bridges, highway projects, tunnels, excavation, locks, dams, well pad construction, pipeline installation, and utilities throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Our world-class team is known for taking extra measures to ensure our work is thorough and accurate.

About OSHA:

In 1970, the United States Congress and President Richard Nixon created the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), a national public health agency dedicated to the basic proposition that no worker should have to choose between their life and their job. The OSHA law makes it clear that the right to a safe workplace is a basic human right. Together with our state  partners, OSHA has tackled fatal safety hazards and health risks. We have established common sense standards and enforced the law against those who put workers at risk. Our standards, enforcement actions, compliance assistance and cooperative programs have saved thousands of lives and prevented countless injuries and illnesses.

Although our task is far from complete, our progress gives us hope and confidence that OSHA will continue to make a lasting difference in the lives of our nation’s workers, their families and their communities.

“Gov. Jim Justice announced the $10 million funding for a new bridge in October 2020 and the project was put on the “fast track” by the state Department of Transportation (WVDOT), which oversees the project.

But construction has been delayed numerous times as the company building the bridge, Brayman Construction, has had to work with WVDOT and Norfolk Southern railway to make sure the tracks below the bridge were clear when the bridge’s piers were being installed.

Pier work was finally completed a few months ago and the steel structure was then put into place, which for the most part freed Brayman to work on the bridge without interference with the railroad tracks below it.

The work is mostly on the deck of the bridge now, so no more delays are expected.”

Currently in Phase IV

“Phase IV, is a $55.7 million, three-mile project which includes widening Route 58 from Rhea Valley Road to the west corporate limits of Damascus. It is being paid for with federal highway funds. Work began in fall 2021 and includes construction of two matching bridges spanning the south fork of the Holston River and both are currently underway.

The contractor is Kanawha Stone Company of Nitro, W.Va., while the bridges are being built by subcontractor Brayman Construction based in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania, but which also operates a Wytheville office.

“We’ve built these bridges which are 474 feet long, 33 feet wide — two identical bridges that are steel span. The first deck pour [concrete] will be around April 1,” VDOT area construction engineer Brian Plummer said Thursday. “We’re roughly 95 feet off the water.”

The bridges are being built beside the current roadway. Once the first is completed, the plan is to shift traffic onto the bridge so workers can then modify the present intersections along the existing road.”Read the Full ArticleSource: Bristol Herald Courier

Steel started “flying” Monday at the Grant Street Bridge in Bluefield as beams were hoisted into the air to be placed on the piers of the bridge.

Preparations were being made during the last few weeks to start placing the steel structure.

Kerry Stauffer, Bluefield City Engineer, said last week it was time for the steel portion of the bridge after the concrete support piers were in place.

Stauffer said the contractor, Brayman Construction, needed the large crane to place the steel, and also needed to work with Norfolk Southern Railroad to make sure some of the tracks underneath the bridge were clear for the work.

If all goes well, the bridge will be finished by August or September this year, he added.
