Conventional barrel cement trucks were deemed unfeasible for fulfilling the concrete requirements of this ski lift project, leading Doppelmayr Lift Co. to engage our services, which addressed their supply dilemma. In close collaboration with North Construction, we efficiently transported all essential materials, including sand, aggregates, and super sacks of cement, to an elevation of 1,430 meters well ahead of the scheduled pouring day. Utilizing our cutting-edge volumetric mixer truck and a helicopter, we batched the cement right next to its forms.
This monumental feat marked one of the highest concrete pours in the history of Metro Vancouver.
SCI has been entrusted with supplying over 4,000m³ of concrete for the foundation of the new Surrey Hospital and BC Cancer Centre, a state-of-the-art facility designed to enhance regional healthcare capacity. As the hospital and cancer centre incorporate advanced medical technologies and virtual health services, SCI is proud to play a key role in the construction of this vital infrastructure.
With a focus on energy efficiency and resilience, this facility will meet or exceed LEED Gold standards, while being designed to mitigate risks from climate change, infectious diseases, and seismic events. Our team is utilizing our trusted volumetric concrete trucks to ensure seamless, on-demand concrete delivery, meeting the high demands of this large-scale project.
At SCI, tackling tough terrain is our specialty, which is why we’ve been hired to supply all the concrete for the retaining walls at the Burke Mountain School construction project. School district 43 is building a brand new $135 million dollar school in Northeast Coquitlam with 23.1 acres of fields and playgrounds.
Leveraging our proven slope-side expertise, we are utilizing our volumetric concrete truck to pour over 7000 cubic meters of on demand concrete for this project. Exceeding a rate of 80 cubic meters per day, our focus always remains on minimizing waste and downtime for our clients.
GIPI encountered a 6 month project delay due to lack of dependable concrete supply prior to enlisting our services.
In order to increase the daily concrete output, a cement silo was strategically positioned on-site, accompanied by a sizeable stockpile of sand and gravel, ensuring a seamless replenishment process, utilizing a cycle of three trucks.
The 1m diameter pilings were filled with concrete 30m below ground level. Each piling averaged 24-25m3 of concrete for a total supply of 5,500m3 for this project.
This collaborative approach enabled GIPI to gain substantial increases in production from 1-2 pilings / day to an impressive 4-5 pilings / day.
