THE TRINITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
TIMELINE FEB – DEC 2019
THE TRINITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
TIMELINE FEB – DEC 2019
THE CHALLENGES – The project presented structural risks brought by the building site's close proximity to the property line and the occupying driveway space above the 9.75-metre wall.
THE SOLUTIONS – The Lock+Load System is a fibre and stainless steel reinforced modular panel wall system, accepted as one of the highest concrete panel walls in British Columbia's Recognized Product List (720). Its unique structure allows fully loaded equipment to drive close along the wall. EarthTech designed the wall at 82 to 88 degrees batter to maintain the driveway width. The overhang design allowed the barrier to sit on top of the wall to maximize the space for the driveway.
96TH AVE EXTENSION PROJECT
TIMELINE FALL 2010 - DEC 2012
THE VALLEY RIDGE BRIDGE
TIMELINE MARCH – SEPT 2020
THE VALLEY RIDGE BRIDGE
TIMELINE MARCH – SEPT 2020
THE CHALLENGES – The bridge required a true abutment design to save the piling cost, meaning the superstructure had to sit directly against the wire mesh wall abutments without pile support. The project challenges included: a high water table with saturated foundation, acute corner paralleled the existing bridge occupying the reinforcement spacing, and the girders were cast short. The objective being maintaining the roadway width, either to allow the superstructure closer to the wall edge, or to straighten the 1:10 batter. Most significantly, the previous known true abutment wall height was exceeded by 11.76 metres, with busy traffic on top of the bridge along the Highway 1 at the entrance of the city of Calgary.

Most significantly, the previous known true abutment wall height was exceeded by 11.76 metres, with busy traffic on top of the bridge along the Highway 1 at the entrance of the city of Calgary.
THE SOLUTIONS – EarthTech took advantage of the project's flexibility. The abutment was designed at an 88 degree batter to maximize the room for the superstructure. EarthTech also used its GRS-IBS designs for the top 3 metres to evenly spread the superstructure's load deeper and wider.
Our work led us to opportunities where we worked on monumental projects we proudly call our Landmark Projects. One of our latest Landmark Projects is the Sharkbite North Heavy Haul Bridge.
THE SHARKBITE NORTH HEAVY HAUL BRIDGE
Near Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada
The Sharkbite Bridge is representative of EarthTech's e-Wire system, which anchors any flexible polymeric reinforcement to hot dipped galvanized welded wire mesh (WWM) with a mechanical connection. It also featured struts that were specifically designed to hook the WWM, the anchoring rod, and the secure rod to significantly increase the system's resilience and integrity.
