Skanska USA’s civil business unit has promoted Chad Saunders to vice president and general manager of Bayshore Concrete Products, a wholly owned subsidiary of Skanska USA.
Established in 1961 to produce the precast concrete components for the world famous 17 mile-long Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, Bayshore Concrete Products has continued as a permanent supplier of a wide variety of precast prestressed concrete structural materials such as concrete docks, concrete piers, spuncast piles, spuncast poles and Raymond concrete piles. The company is headquartered in Cape Charles.
Saunders graduated from Old Dominion University in Norfolk with a bachelor of science degree in civil engineering. During his more than 13 years with Bayshore, Saunders has provided products for Victory Bridge in New Jersey, Route 52 Causeway in Ocean City, N.J., and for numerous piers at Naval Station Norfolk and the Norfolk Naval Shipyard.
Saunders has played a significant role in the supply of precast materials for the new Chincoteague Bridge on the Atlantic coast of Virginia and the Indian River Inlet Bridge in Delaware. BD+C
