Project Spotlight: Toronto Western Hospital Expansion Exciting transformations are underway at Toronto Western Hospital, as we embark on a significant renovation to enhance patient care. This ambitious project includes a state-of-the-art 15-storey patient tower, featuring two additional basement levels seamlessly integrated with the existing underground structure. InGeo Design is proud to be at the forefront of this development, providing innovative excavation support designs such as soldier pile and lagging systems, caisson wall systems, and advanced shotcrete and nail applications. Our commitment to safety and compliance shines through as we navigate the requirements of the nearby streetcar track, delivering a comprehensive monitoring plan and impact assessment. Prior to construction, we conducted thorough condition surveys for the hospital, adjacent church, and surrounding infrastructure to ensure a solid foundation for progress. Throughout the construction phase, we utilize precision monitoring techniques for pile settlement, track movement, inclinometer readings, and vibration assessments, safeguarding the integrity of nearby structures while confirming minimal deflection. As we work towards an enhanced healthcare experience, our dedication to excellence ensures that Toronto Western Hospital continues to be a cornerstone of community health for years to come! #engineering #shoring #toronto #excavation

Afternoon at the Toronto Botanical Gardens Last week, our team traded the office hustle for a delightful afternoon at the Toronto Botanical Gardens! ✿ While most of the flowers were no longer in bloom, a few were still holding on, such as amaranth and coneflowers. We frolicked through the lush greenery, soaking in the beauty of rustling leaves and the early whispers of autumn colours. With sunshine beaming down on a cheerful guide leading the way, it was the perfect escape from our usual to-do lists. Sometimes, you just need to hit pause, breathe the fresh air, and remember to stop and smell the flowers.

Condo Development: Block 1B Mount Pleasant The Block 1B Mount Pleasant development is a 14-storey residential condominium located at the northeast corner of Bovaird Drive West and Mississauga Road in Brampton, Ontario. InGeo Design provided the excavation shoring design for this project, featuring a soldier pile and lagging system supported by tiebacks and rakers. Our team also performed tieback stressing, monitored piles and settlements using total stations, and conducted inclinometer monitoring. Additionally, we completed a pre-construction condition survey of nearby roads and sidewalks, and observed the destressing of tiebacks.

Our Landmark Project: Union Station Revitalization   From 2011 to 2015, Union Station underwent a transformative revitalization, constructing a new pedestrian platform on the south side. InGeo collaborated closely with the general contractor, structural engineers, and the shoring contractor to provide design solutions throughout various construction stages. Our contributions included structural finite element analysis of the TTC tunnel, lateral bracing using SAP software, and the design of temporary supports. Additionally, we developed traffic decking for the intersection, analyzed TTC tunnel structures under varying loads, and designed utility supports for water mains, hydro, sewers, and gas mains.   This project showcased our ability to cover numerous excavation shoring design systems and provide a wide range of services. As the premier gateway to Toronto and the busiest, most important transportation hub in Canada, Union Station serves a quarter-million people daily, making this project significant in scale and impact.   Learn more about our journey at ingeodesign.com. #shoring #excavation #unionstation #toronto #ttc #engineering #subway

InGeo’s Outing: Kayaking Adventure Last week, our team enjoyed perfect weather for a kayaking trip from downtown Toronto to the beautiful Toronto Islands. Along the way, we had the exciting opportunity to visit one of our own projects, the Royal Canadian Yacht Club, where we designed the sheet pile seawall, bollards and ladders. It was truly thrilling to see our work come to life and experience it firsthand. Check out some highlights from our adventure!

Metrolinx GO Lakeshore East Rail Corridor We’re thrilled to showcase our latest contribution to the Lakeshore East rail corridor, the second busiest Metrolinx GO rail line. To accommodate the addition of a new fourth track, key bridges at Danforth Avenue, Warden Avenue, and Woodbine Avenue were being widened and reinforced. InGeo Design played a pivotal role in this project by designing the micropile retention systems and soldier pile and lagging systems for these crucial crossings. Our expertise ensured the integrity and stability of the infrastructure through precise tieback stressing and comprehensive overnight shoring installation observation. We also supported our client’s submission to Metrolinx ensuring strict compliance with Metrolinx and AREMA standards.

InGeo Design designed the soldier pile and lagging system supported with tiebacks for the new 4-storey structure at the University of Toronto. Additionally, we designed underpinning panels below an existing tunnel to maintain the tunnel’s structural integrity. Throughout the excavation, our services included pile monitoring, crack gauges monitoring and field reviews, ensuring the project's success at every stage.
