FEATURED PROJECTS
The work speaks for itself.
From emergency highway closures to long-term stabilization programs, our projects span BC's most challenging terrain and some of its most critical infrastructure corridors.
North Beach slide stabilization
Deployed two Klemm 806 drill rigs to stabilize an active slide zone on Highway 97. Ninety high-capacity anchors tensioned to 3,400 kN lock-off enabled full four-lane reinstatement.
Working under challenging conditions alongside Emil Anderson Construction, our crew installed ninety 75 mm high-capacity anchors each extending 100 feet into the slope. These were precision-tensioned and tested to achieve a lock-off load of 3,400 kN. The system was reinforced with engineered concrete whalers and detailed rebar design. Additional scope included controlled blasting, shotcrete application, slope mesh installation, and over one hundred 32 mm thread bar rock anchors.
Horseshoe Bay rock face remediation
A destabilized slope above Berth 3 was actively shedding rock into the marine environment. High-angle access crews scaled and removed hazardous material, installing 250 m of rock bolts and 700 m² of TECCO mesh.
Working in a highly sensitive coastal setting, our crews utilized high-angle access techniques to safely scale and remove loose, hazardous material from the slope face. We installed approximately 250 metres of rock bolts and secured the area with over 700 square metres of TECCO mesh wrap, effectively mitigating ongoing rockfall risk. Additional scope included mesh system repairs, barrier fencing, and targeted common excavation.
Canal Road dip slide
Re-established two lanes of coastal roadway compromised by active slope movement. Over 25 precision blasts, 30,000 m³ excavated, and a 58-metre shotcrete anchor wall with architectural rock face finish.
Our crews executed more than 25 precision-controlled blasts within a strict 3 PPV vibration threshold. Over 30,000 cubic metres of material was excavated and hauled offsite. A marine barge landing was constructed on driven pilings to facilitate material import. A 58-metre-long, 24-foot-high shotcrete soil nail anchor wall was installed with an architectural rock face finish to blend with the surrounding coastal environment.
North Beach slide — emergency response
Engaged on an emergency basis following a catastrophic slope failure on Highway 97. With no predefined solution, our team worked in real time with engineers to stabilize the slope and maintain the corridor.
Rapid mobilization began with over 35,000 cubic metres of highly controlled trim blasting at low vibration levels. A large attenuator fence was installed at the crest to protect crews below. Two Klemm KR 806 rigs then installed 75 mm DCP thread bar anchors to 30 metres at 15-degree inclination, tensioned to 3,400 kN lock-off, supported by engineered concrete whalers, rebar design, and shotcrete application.
Cameron Lake Highway 4 emergency response
Wildfire-induced instability forced full closure of Highway 4 — the only route to Vancouver Island's west coast. Four 260-ton cranes suspended protective mesh to allow partial reopening while 2+ km of slope was scaled and stabilized.
Our crews installed a temporary protection system using four 260-ton cranes to suspend high-capacity mesh over the roadway, allowing safe single-lane alternating traffic while stabilization progressed. High-angle rock scaling operations were then carried out across more than 2 kilometres of slope, followed by rock bolt installation for long-term reinforcement. Full two-lane traffic was successfully reinstated once the slope was secured.
Royal View Transmission Line, Knox Mountain
Installed twin 750 mm waterlines along the steep slopes of Knox Mountain using rope access techniques and precision-controlled blasting in close proximity to residential structures. Anchored thrust blocks constructed to detailed rebar spec using 38 MPa concrete.
Operating in a constrained urban environment, our team executed precision-controlled blasting in close proximity to residential structures and critical infrastructure. Anchored thrust blocks were built to a highly detailed rebar specification and poured using 38 MPa concrete. All work was carried out using rope access techniques where conventional access was not feasible. A dedicated high-angle rope rescue team was maintained on site throughout to support excavation activities and ensure rapid emergency response capability.
Ford Road to Tappen Valley Road soil nail wall
Constructed a soil nail shotcrete anchor wall along Highway 1 within a severely constrained footprint beneath both an existing structure and a newly constructed bridge.
This project demanded a high level of precision and technical execution, as the wall was constructed within a severely constrained footprint beneath both an existing structure and a newly constructed bridge. Operating in tight quarters required careful coordination, specialized access, and strict adherence to safety and engineering requirements. Our crews installed over 85 number 9 DCP soil nails, followed by welded wire mesh placement and the application of more than 100 cubic metres of shotcrete to form the structural facing of the wall.
