Client

Executive Group Development

Project Scope

Bulk and footing excavation totaling 45,000 M3 to an average depth of 12.5 M

Shotcrete 2,500 M2, Anchors 340 EA an average of 11 M long and 4" Pipe Pile 43 EA an average of 7 M long

The Met

6588 Nelson Ave, Burnaby • Feb 2013 - Jul 2014

Client

Concord Pacific (via Centreville Construction Ltd.)

Project Scope

Bulk and footing excavation totaling 55,000 M3 to an average depth of 11.4 M

Shotcrete 2,900 M2, Anchors 900 EA an average of 8.5 M long

Performance Achievements

Maintained the project schedule despite dealing with 1500 tonne of contaminated soil, late delivery of tower crane and Burnaby’s requirement to leave a truck wash in place until 90% of the volume was removed.

We were subsequently awarded phase 2 of The Met in August 2014.

Renfrew Centre

2889 East 12th Avenue, Vancouver • Dec 2013 - Aug 2014

Client

Ventana Construction Corporation

Project Scope

Bulk and footing excavation totaling 48,000 M3 to an average depth of 14.7 M

Shotcrete shoring 3450 M2, Anchors 690 EA an average of 11.3 M long

Performance Achievements

Fully cooperated with Ventana while contending with multiple changes to the shoring designs and/or field issued directives resulting from poor soil conditions. Contended with the requirement for extensive face saving measures in the upper soft fills and soft clay. Added vertical spiles on one face to contain migrating near surface fills. Budgeted and executed a new H-Pile shoring system with shotcrete lagging to repair a zone where a failure occurred in the upper soft soils. Constantly pumped extensive inflows of groundwater to onsite treatment location. Blasted, split and hoe-rammed extremely hard zones of sandstone in the lower half of the excavation. Negotiated final payout after many months of discussions, avoiding the need to force payment through a lawsuit.
