Elizabeth Boro, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
Sewer Separation Project
Pre Construction Video
May 2020
For this Pre Construction Video we were hired by the Elizabeth Boro Maintenance Authority. This particular project did not require pre construction photography. We have done projects in Pennsylvania and other states for the past five years with several contractors. This project required ALL PRO USA to document the street and residences along the proposed path of the project to overhaul the sewers in the Boro of Elizabeth, Pennsylvania in Allegheny County.

The focus of the video was to document the road surface, sidewalks, curbs, culverts, retaining walls, utilities and landscaping along the proposed construction path for the project that the Elizabeth Boro Maintenance Authority was undertaking. ALL PRO USA documented each section of the project in a logical manner using a two person team. By documenting the project in this way the contractor has a cohesive package that can be watched from start to finish to see all of the areas within the limits of disturbance or jump to a particular residence or intersection along the proposed path. The project that Elizabeth Boro Maintenance Authority was undertaking was the separation of the sewer system for the town. With this being a residential area with some traffic traveling through it safety was a top priority for the team. Each of us had high vis vests and hats on, we were not required to wear hardhats but they were readily available in the truck. To document the area we used our truck mounted camera, and state of the art Cannon DSLR Cameras and Nikon Mirrorless Cameras. For the sidewalk perspective we utilized the Nikon Camera mounted to a DJI Ronin Gimbal system.
The contractor provided us a map that highlighted the streets that would need to be documented. The team took care to carefully document all conditions that we saw as we moved through the streets. We were able to provide the contractor with to distinct angles of coverage. The first angle that we provided was from the truck with a camera mounted to it. This method was used to document the road surface conditions along the proposed project path. The other angle was from a handheld perspective with a member of the team walking the sidewalks or the side of the road. The focus of this second perspective was to pay closer attention to the sidewalks and the residences along the projects path. Splitting the project in half this way provides a greater level of detail for the contractor. This allows for two pairs of eyes to be documenting the pre existing conditions. What this means is that damages or imperfections that could go unseen are caught by one member of the team. This also gives the contractor a wider field of vision over the proposed project path.
