144 Park Street

144 Park Street

During the bidding process, HCM proposed an innovative design-build shoring solution for the 144 Park Street project, a 19 storey condominium in the downtown core of Waterloo. HCM was retained by Mady Developments to design, supply, and install a complete 9,500 SF bypass shotcrete shoring system.

RWH Engineering Inc. (RWH), an HC Group company, took on the design and monitoring responsibility for the project. The design consisted of a tied-back bypass shotcrete shoring system to a depth of approximately 5 meters. Bypass shotcrete is a unique solution developed by HCM which combines the benefits of shotcrete with a traditional piling system.

HCM’s design-build approach allows for a single source of responsibility. The HCM/RWH integrated working relationship facilitates quick response to design changes and site issues that may occur, ultimately minimizing potential delays and helping to maintain project milestones.

Client: Mady Development Construction Ltd.

Location: Waterloo, Ontario

The HC Group team is positioned to provide exemplary service when performing design-build work – providing both cost and schedule savings to the project.
