Crane Work

From general construction and heavy lifts to dredging, pile driving, bridges and cofferdams, AAC has significant crane power; including floating and land-based cranes with capacities of up to 200 tons. From pipe pile and H-beams to sheet pile, our pile driving equipment will fit all your specific project requirements.

As our cranes are mobile, we are able to move them
easily on and off our barges. Some of our cranes and barges can be torn down and mobilized to any site by land or water.

Docks and Piers
We have designed, built, repaired, and removed numerous docks and piers in the Pacific Northwest.

Power and Communication Cables
We have all the equipment necessary to survey, lay, and bury power or communication cable, both standard and fiber-optic. Our Cable Jet Sled can jet in cable up to seven feet deep.

Pipelines, Intake and Outfall Structures
Whether HDPE, steel, wood or concrete pipe, we can install pipelines of any size and length, in any location your project requires. We specialize in design-build and installation, intakes and outfalls, as well as surveys, repairs, modifications and maintenance.

Surveys
Complete surveys, including hydrographic and video documentation, of all marine construction projects are available. Surveys include pipelines, power and communication cables, locks and dams, intake and outfall structures, docks and piers, bridges, tug boats and ships.

Lock and Dam Fish Run Enhancement
We cover basic surveys to complete fabrication and installation of major lock and dam modifications. Advanced American Construction, Inc. has partnered with the Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, Portland General Electric, Pacific Power & Light, and many private owners throughout the western states.

Fish run enhancement projects range from major dam refits to air burst intakes for pump houses, enhancing the continuation of salmon and steelhead runs throughout the Northwest.

Bridges
We have extensive bridge construction and repair experience, including design-build, modifications, surveys, and final repair.

Salvage and Recovery
