The ADIEM system is a proven energy absorbing crash cushion that has been used by state and local agencies for many years. One of the advantages of the ADIEM system is that it can be used in both temporary and permanent applications. The narrow design makes it ideal for use protecting blunt ends of K-Rail and can be relaocated quickly as the railing is moved.

photoAgencies like the versatility of the ADIEM with its ability to be installed on either concrete, asphalt or compacted soil. In addition to its installation advantages, the ADIEM is available through the Western United States. Contact us today for more details.

C&W Construction Recognized by Bechtel for Outstanding Performance Supporting its Power Projects

May 8, 2013 By admin

C&W Construction Specialties is a highly regarded specialty construction contractor servicing California since 1948.

C&W Construction Specialties, Southern California’s leader in both specialty highway safety projects and commercial fencing, recently received a 2012 Contractor/Supplier Recognition Program Award from Bechtel, a global leader in engineering, construction, and project management, for its outstanding support of its power projects.

Steven Bennett, President of C&W says, “It is a great honor for C&W to be selected as one of the 68 winners recognized for outstanding performance. It’s a privilege to work with such a premier organization, which is known worldwide for its leadership in our industry.”

Eric Marksberry, C&W Senior Project Manager, accepted the award on behalf of C&W Construction Specialties during Bechtel’s gala ceremony in Frederick, Maryland, home to Bechtel’s power business. Eric was quick to recognize the outstanding contribution of his teammates saying, “Our thanks go out to all those at C&W Construction Specialties who have contributed to the success of our projects and helped strengthen our relationships with companies like Bechtel.”

C&W Construction Specialties is currently supporting Bechtel on two high profile solar projects, both of which require meeting stringent project standards, with special care for the surrounding environment. One 110 megawatt solar project located in Mojave, CA requires C&W to install almost ten miles of fencing and gates, while making provision to protect the California desert tortoise. Another 250 megawatt project located in Santa Margarita, CA requires installation of over 20 miles of fencing and gates, with special considerations for protection of the San Joaquin kit fox and several other endangered wildlife species that are indigenous to the region.

C&W Construction Specialties is a highly regarded specialty construction contractor servicing California since 1948. The company installs a full range of fence and highway safety products, including metal beam guard rail systems, crash cushions, and vehicle barriers. C&W Construction Specialties, Inc. has based its operations in the city of Ventura California since 1948. They pride themselves on the ability to undertake any project in their area of expertise, no matter how specialized or technical. C&W also offers a complete selection of quality fencing and guardrail materials for agencies and contractors doing their own installations.
