GEMTEC was retained for geotechnical engineering services in support of the design and construction of the École Fredericton Nord. GEMTEC was awarded a Municipal/Civil Showcase Award from the Association of Consulting Engineers of New Brunswick for their work on this project.
Project highlights include:
- Use of seismic CPT, in addition to conventional geotechnical boreholes, to comprehensively evaluate sub-surface conditions
- Assess the potentially liquefiable soils
- Geotechnical recommendations for cost-saving shallow-foundation design
- Surcharge and settlement monitoring
- Construction inspection services
- ACEC award winner
