Read moreThe Entry Tower on Sentier des Cimes project consists of a 1.5 km pedestrian footbridge. The footbridge is suspended at treetops from which comes the name “Tree Top Walk”. It also includes two towers, a main observation tower standing at approximately 40 meters (120 feet) and a 5-story elevator, 25 meters high (82 feet).
The Tree Top Walk project is a walkway primarily composed of wooden “BC fir” decking supported by glulam beams. On average the walkway is 10 meters high, and reaches over 17 meters at its highest point giving a treetop point of view to the hikers.
Read moreThe main goal of this mandate was to design a falsework steel structure seating on temporary piles. The structure supported a pile cap of 4m dimension and the formwork underwater. The structure had to resist significant gravity loads (self-weight, formwork & concrete) as well as important water pressures (buoyancy & lateral). The structural components had to be designed to ease installation. Therefore, it was crucial to analyze all the load transmission using a structural model.

The project’s location constraints, including the impossibility of developing an access path to the underground parking lot due to non-construction setbacks, required the design of a vehicle lift that would provide vertical access to the parking lots.
