Our expert engineers provided comprehensive Temporary Works Engineering solutions for the Paddock Bridge Construction Project in Puslinch, ON, addressing the challenges posed by structural deterioration that led to the bridge’s closure. Our team developed detailed engineered plans for the safe demolition of the structure, including an innovative debris containment system that doubled as temporary lateral support for the bridge abutments. Additionally, we conducted Design Check Engineering for the temporary cofferdam and dewatering procedures, enabling safe excavation and the construction of new abutments and wing walls.
