“We built a long section of combi wall that ran about 150
metres east-west along the Keating Channel,” said Mike Van
Impe, project manager with SB Canada. “Then the combi wall
turned southerly and continued for another 45 metres until it
tied into an existing quay.”
Van Impe explains that the combi wall was made up of
rock socketed hollow pipes laced with sheet piles and tieback
rock anchors. Several suppliers delivered these materials:
Pipe & Piling Supplies Ltd., a major producer and supplier
of steel pipe across North America, and Samuel Roll Form
Group, manufacturing steel roll form products for more than
45 years; both provided a steady, reliable source of material.
“One of the more complex things about this project was
that rock anchor tiebacks were utilized to ensure plumbness
during and after backfilling operations. The rock anchors,
which were installed from marine plant, had an outward
batter and a socket depth of up to 8.5 metres, and required a
massive amount of air to lift the drill spoils. The rock anchor
casings were drilled in a single stroke using a down-the-hole
hammer and a Berminghammer BHD-40 hydraulic drill
mounted to a custom vertical travel lead supported by a 165
tonne crane.
“Contech Systems supplied all the rock anchoring material,
and in conjunction with the pipe piles, the sheet piles and the
rock anchors, we ended up with a very robust system.”
Bermingham’s internal engineering department designed
and manufactured a custom steel template that would ensure
the proper location of the wall. The custom template solution
utilized the existing dock wall to keep everything aligned.
