Services Provided
InGeo Design played a crucial role in this project by providing excavation support design for the underground structure. Our design consisted of a soldier pile and lagging system, caisson walls supported by tiebacks, and a shotcrete and nails design. Working in close collaboration with our client, we navigated compliance with TTC requirements, crucial due to the project’s proximity to the TTC streetcar track. Our submission to TTC included a monitoring plan for the streetcar track and an impact assessment letter. Various options of shoring were provided due to nearby overhead hydro lines and confined overhead space along the south wall due to existing structures.
Before construction began, we conducted pre-construction condition surveys, thoroughly assessing the exterior of the hospital, the adjacent church, and the surrounding sidewalks and streets. Monitoring services including precision target monitoring for nearby structures, pile monitoring, continuous settlement monitoring, inclinometer monitoring and vibration monitoring to meet City requirements will be provided once construction activities commence on site.
