Big Salmon River Bridge
This project consisted of a 125 m long structure crossing the Big Salmon River. The superstructure spans were 60 m and 65 m with 3-2.4 m deep girder that were haunched to 3.6 m deep at the pier. The structure width was 11.4 m. The substructure consisted of both abutments founded on engineered fill and the pier was supported by a structural tremie foundation contained by a steel sheet pile cofferdam.
Leo Hayes High School
This project consists of a new 2 storey 15,500± m² high school. The building was constructed using structural steel framing with braced frames to resist seismic loads. Compositely designed floors were used for economy, fire resistance and vibration resistance. The building featured a unique architectural design layout with a curved classroom wing, parabolically curved steel roof trusses over the gymnasia and a large atrium. As structural consultants, we were able to meet the intent of the Architect’s design by utilizing unique and sophisticated structural analysis and design while still keeping the structural costs under budget.
