Shoring/Excavation Projects
Our Shoring Projects
Take a look through some of our client projects, and the various locations we've worked at.
The massive mixed‐use redevelopment of the Honest Ed’s and Mirvish Village includes six main towers of up to thirty storeys, offering over 800 modern residential and commercial units in Downtown Toronto’s Annex area (Bloor & Bathurst neighbourhood). Tarra Engineering and GFL Environmental were retained to design and to provide excavation shoring services for the project. Excavation shoring was required on two adjacent lots, namely the west property and the massive east property, where most of the future towers are to be constructed. West property consisted of two underground levels while the east property consisted of four underground levels. All work had to be designed and completed in the vicinity of existing retail stores and residential houses, including selected heritage façade and buildings that are to be preserved.
The mixed-use development includes three levels of underground parking. Shoring was required on all four sides of the new underground structures and consisted of soldier pile and lagging supported by tiebacks.
The mixed-use development includes four levels of underground parking. Shoring was required on all four sides of the new underground structures and consisted of caissons and soldier pile and lagging supported by tiebacks. The new development is within the vicinity of the TTC infrastructure and required coordination and review with TTC.
The mixed-use development includes two full levels and a partial third level of underground parking. Shoring was required on all sides of the new underground structures and consisted of caissons and soldier pile and lagging supported by tiebacks.
