PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
LE MOT DU PRÉSIDENT
A national voice
Une voix nationale
In the past 50 years, a colossal number of projects have been created by
imaginative and pioneering owners, architects and engineers who looked
to precast concrete to meet their challenges. Innovative projects as
diverse as stadiums, bridges, parking structures, offices, schools, multiunit housing and industrial buildings have been produced.
Au fil du dernier demi-siècle, on a vu un nombre colossal de projets
créés par des pionniers à l’imagination débordante – des propriétaires,
des architectes et des ingénieurs qui, pour relever de nouveaux défis,
se sont tournés vers le béton préfabriqué. Ils ont produit toutes sortes
de projets novateurs : stades, ponts, stationnements, bureaux, écoles,
complexes d’habitation et bâtiments industriels.
2011 marked the 50th anniversary of the formation of the Canadian
Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (CPCI). CPCI is the national voice
representing producers, suppliers and users of precast concrete for the
construction of commercial, industrial, residential and public/institutional
buildings, as well as bridges, transportation facilities and other related
infrastructure or specialty structures.
These projects not only expanded the way that precast concrete was used
when they were constructed, but in many cases they pioneered new products, systems and techniques that in turn were embraced by the entire
design community in future projects.
As part of our celebration, we have selected the 50 most significant precast
projects in our history. The selections came from over hundreds that were
nominated by CPCI members. The final projects were selected by a panel
of judges that included Malcolm Hachborn, P. Eng., Chief Engineer, Res
Precast Inc. (and CPCI’s 2011 Chairman of the Board), Andrew LeVatte,
Business Development, Strescon, Ltd. (and Chair of CPCI’s Marketing
Committee), Brian Hall, CPCI Managing Director of Sustainability and
Business Development, and myself. The selection proved to be a difficult
one due to the substantial number of projects that truly offer breathtaking
design and innovation.
Presented in this issue of Imagineering magazine are the best of the best:
the 50 most significant projects produced by CPCI members featuring
precast concrete components. Nevertheless, they represent the tip of the
iceberg in terms of creativity, effectiveness and aesthetically pleasing
designs created in the past 50-plus years.
For those interested in a more detailed description of these projects, we
encourage you to visit our website at www.cpci.ca and follow the link to
CPCI’s “50th Anniversary Commemorative Book.”

En 2011, l’Institut canadien du béton préfabriqué et précontraint a
célébré son 50e anniversaire. Le CPCI est LA voix nationale qui représente les producteurs, fournisseurs et utilisateurs de béton préfabriqué
pour la construction commerciale, industrielle, résidentielle et institutionnelle, ainsi que pour les ponts, réseaux de transport et autres infrastructures.
Ces projets, en plus d’élargir la palette d’utilisation du béton préfabriqué
lors de leur érection, ont souvent inauguré des produits, méthodes et
systèmes nouveaux qu’ont adoptés par la suite les autres concepteurs.
Dans le cadre de notre anniversaire, nous avons sélectionné les 50
projets en béton préfabriqué les plus importants dans l’histoire du CPCI.
Nous les avons choisis parmi les centaines de projets proposés par
nos membres. La sélection finale a été faite par un jury composé de
Malcolm Hachborn, P. Eng., ingénieur en chef chez Res Precast Inc. (et
président du conseil d’administration du CPCI en 2011); Andrew LeVatte,
développement des affaires chez Strescon, Ltd. (et président du comité
de marketing du CPCI); Brian Hall, directeur général de la durabilité et
du développement des affaires au CPCI; et moi-même. Nous avons dû
faire des choix crève-cœur en raison du grand nombre de projets à la
conception et à l’innovation stupéfiantes.
Dans ce numéro d’Imagineering, vous trouverez la crème de la crème :
les 50 projets les plus importants qu’aient réalisés les membres du
CPCI avec des composants en béton préfabriqué. Et pourtant, ce groupe
ne représente qu’une fraction de la créativité, de l’efficacité et de
l’esthétisme mis de l’avant depuis une cinquantaine d’années.
Pour en savoir plus sur chacun de ces projets, je vous invite à consulter

Executive Editor’s Message
MESSAGE DU Rédacteur en chef
Celebrating 50 years
Over 50 years ago, CPCI members initiated the search for excellence in
design and construction, utilizing precast prestressed concrete. But how
does one define excellence?
Excellence is more than just doing a great job. It is the expansion of ideas
and exceeding expectations, and this happens when we push ourselves
beyond our comfort zone. Not only does this result in great innovation,
but as an industry it drives our growth, both professionally and personally. Some of the most innovative structures result from taking a chance
on something new. This is the case with the precast concrete industry
working with designers to “push the envelope” on possibilities.
Today, precast concrete assists architects and stakeholders in achieving
sustainability initiatives, shorter schedules and tighter budgetary
constraints in every building sector, from low-rise schools to high-rise
condominiums, to parking structures and elegant bridges.
Precast concrete is a versatile material with structural, aesthetic and
architectural benefits. It is getting thinner and lighter, spanning longer
distances, with quicker erection times, while at the same time providing
high quality materials and finishes. For buildings, it is utilized as the
structural system and the envelope system, resulting in truly optimized
projects.
The winning projects in CPCI’s “50th Anniversary Commemorative Book,”
highlighted in this issue of Imagineering magazine, feature innovations
that demonstrate precast concrete’s versatility. This issue showcases 50
structures that have pushed the envelope, redefining excellence. Some
projects used ultra-high-performance concrete to greatly reduce the
thickness and weight of precast concrete panels; others used precast
concrete to accomplish completely new integrated designs, such as the
Greater Toronto Airport Authority Parking Garage.
Almost all of the projects included various levels of sustainable design,
utilizing the advantage of precast concrete’s many sustainable features
to reach their goals. We hope that this issue’s innovative projects spark
your own imagination so that you too can redefine excellence in your next
project. The challenge to design professionals is to build on these precast
stories, to continue to redefine excellence and to push the boundaries
even further.
We invite you to show off your exceptional precast concrete projects and
be an inspiration to your peers and generations to come by submitting
your projects to Imagineering magazine. Submit your precast concrete
projects to CPCI at info@cpci.ca.

Joyeux anniversaire!
Il y a plus de 50 ans, les membres de l’Institut canadien du béton préfabriqué et
précontraint se sont mis en quête de l’excellence en conception et en construction, à travers l’utilisation du béton préfabriqué et précontraint. Or, comment
définir l’excellence?
L’excellence, c’est plus que de faire du bon boulot; il s’agit de faire avancer les
idées, de dépasser les attentes, choses possibles lorsqu’on sort de sa zone de
confort. C’est ainsi qu’on arrive à de grandes innovations. C’est ainsi qu’on peut
grandir, comme individus et comme professionnels. La prise d’un risque, l’essai
d’une nouvelle idée ont donné naissance à des structures novatrices. C’est ce
qu’on remarque dans l’industrie du béton préfabriqué, où on collabore avec des
concepteurs pour repousser les limites du possible.
De nos jours, le béton préfabriqué aide architectes et intervenants à réaliser des
projets de développement durable, à raccourcir les échéanciers et à resserrer
les budgets dans tous les secteurs de la construction, qu’on parle d’écoles de
plain-pied ou de hautes tours d’habitation, de stationnements à étages ou de
ponts majestueux.
Le béton préfabriqué est un matériau polyvalent offrant des avantages structurels, esthétiques et architecturaux. Il devient de plus en plus mince et léger,
il couvre de plus longues distances, il se met en place plus rapidement, tout
cela en offrant des matériaux et des finis de qualité supérieure. Enfin, il permet
d’optimiser réellement les bâtiments où il sert de structure et d’enveloppe.
Les projets lauréats présentés dans le « Livre commémoratif du 50e anniversaire » du CPCI, dont il est question dans ce numéro de notre magazine, mettent
de l’avant des innovations qui démontrent la polyvalence du béton préfabriqué.
Vous trouverez en ces pages 50 constructions qui ont repoussé les limites et
redéfini l’excellence. Certains projets ont utilisé du béton à très haut rendement
pour réduire de beaucoup l’épaisseur et le poids des panneaux de béton
préfabriqué. D’autres ont réalisé des concepts intégrés novateurs à l’aide du
béton préfabriqué, comme le stationnement de l’Aéroport de Toronto.
Presque tous les projets retenus faisaient appel à une conception durable, à un
certain degré, et profitaient des nombreuses caractéristiques durables du béton
préfabriqué pour atteindre leurs objectifs. Nous espérons que ces réalisations
vous encourageront à redéfinir l’excellence dans vos prochains projets. À vous,
concepteurs, de bâtir sur ces succès et continuer à redéfinir l’excellence et
repousser encore plus loin les limites du possible.
Montrez vos projets exceptionnels en béton préfabriqué, inspirez vos collègues
et les générations futures : proposez vos projets au magazine Imagineering.

Congratulations to the Canadian Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute on 50 years of being the industry’s prime source of technical
information about precast prestressed concrete in Canada, while
advancing the common interests of those of us in the industry.
During the past five decades we have seen the many advantages
of precast prestressed concrete lead to its widespread use in the
Canadian construction marketplace.
We have to look no further than the remarkable projects highlighted in this publication to see how the use of precast/prestressed concrete is evolving and growing to meet the needs of an increasingly
complex construction industry. Whether the projects are massive
in size and scope, innovative in design, or vitally important public
works, it’s clear to see that they have helped build, grow, and transform the communities in which we live.
I look ahead to the next 50 years with great optimism as there
will be many opportunities as this country must address the infrastructure deficit. I believe we will continue to see major infrastructure projects, whether they are delivered through public-private-partnerships or traditional methods, all providing tremendous
opportunities for growth.
I encourage all CPCI members to keep pushing the envelope
in innovation, design, and cost-effectiveness, so we can continue the path of growth and opportunity in this essential part of
our business.
Congratulations again to CPCI; we look forward to the next
50 years.

Bridging the
gap between
design and
manufacture
Optimizing the manufacturability
of precast prestressed
concrete bridge components
speeds delivery, reduces risk
and ensures a high-quality
product that meets all project
performance parameters
The benefits of precast prestressed concrete bridges are well known
to consulting engineers. Accelerated construction. Tighter tolerances.
Consistency and repeatability. Cost effectiveness. They’re durable
and provide the aesthetics that satisfy infrastructure asset owners and
communities. It’s no wonder precast prestressed concrete is an
increasingly popular choice.
Girder selection is based on geographical and environmental context, the
span required and optimizing the span to depth ratio. Each girder has to
be designed and manufactured to meet the exact specifications of each
particular project. Anything less represents increased costs, project delays
and possible risk. Yet far too often, girder designs originally designed
by consulting engineers, municipalities and government transportation
departments end up requiring modifications at the manufacturing stage.
All manufacturers have different beds, and therefore different bed
capacities (strengths). Each design received from a consulting engineer
inevitably requires some changes to suit the production facility. But
many changes could be alleviated by early collaboration with the precast
prestressed bridge manufacturer.
Simply put, the original designs are often too difficult and costly to produce,
eradicating many of the benefits of using precast prestressed concrete in the
first place. And the incessant back-and-forth from the manufacturer to the
contract administrator to the bridge owner on design variations inflates costs
and paperwork, and can slow progress almost to a halt, delaying the start of
manufacturing and in some cases posing the risk of penalties down the line
for late delivery of the final bridge product.
That’s why Munro Ltd. has built a team of more than 30 in-house engineers
and technologists. They don’t design bridges and other transportation
infrastructure products. They take the design one step further and optimize it
for cost effective manufacturing.
For precast prestressed concrete bridge components (superstructure and
substructure), Munro engineers collaborate with the project consulting
engineers to examine functionality, durability and lifecycle cost. Working

faster. More new bridges can be built and more bridges
can be rehabilitated faster, closing the bridge infrastructure
gap sooner.
from the designers’ wish list, Munro engineers can
collaborate with bridge design engineers right at the design
phase to provide guidance on what reinforcing cage designs
are possible to manufacture, what strand patterns will work
best with the reinforcement and how the undercut on the
bridge girder can be designed.
Bridges are one of the most important components of
transportation infrastructure. Munro Ltd. is willing to share
expertise in concrete mix design, and steel and concrete
manufacturing to assist designers in refining their designs
so that products not only meet required specifications but
exceed them. And when the bridge girders, integral deck
girders, deck panels, piers, pier caps, footings, barriers,
wingwalls, abutments, or approach slabs are ready for
manufacture, Munro Ltd. will manufacture them all indoors
100% of the time under 100% controlled conditions.
Concrete cracking is always a concern for the designer, the
manufacturer and the bridge owner. Cracks can affect the
asset life of the bridge and they definitely take away from
the aesthetics of the bridge. But cracks can be minimized
such that they are no longer an issue. How? Through
consultation with Munro Ltd. engineers who understand
that concrete is a composite material. It is the proper
design and placement of rebar and prestressing strands in
the right location, in addition to the proper concrete mix
and production technique that minimizes the potential of
cracks and results in bridge girders that are attractive and
form part of our sustainable bridge infrastructure.
Re-design, re-calculate, review – Munro Ltd. engineers
want to work with engineers in design and government
transportation departments to eliminate the re-work. If
consulting engineers and government structural engineers
collaborate with Munro Ltd. engineers on reinforcing cage
design, undercut design and production techniques – better
bridges will be produced faster and delivered to project sites
Everyone knows you can’t recall a bridge. So Munro
engineers take full responsibility for their work.
Completed, final shop drawings for bridge components
to be manufactured are designed by one engineer, and
reviewed and approved by another engineer
The end result? Bridge components that are easy to
manufacture and easy to install, all while meeting each
and every performance specification. Accelerated bridge
construction all year round.

The Enerlife 2009 List of Top Energy Performing Schools
“There is a three-pronged approach
to
success
in
high-performance
schools” according to Erin Holka,
Environmental Sustainability Officer
of the Halton Catholic District School
Board in Ontario. “Building design,
operations, and occupant engagement
work
together
to
achieve
and
sustain consistently high energy and
environmental performance.”
York Catholic District School Board in
Ontario, also knows a great deal about
what makes an energy efficient school.
in Keswick, Ontario, is the best of the
board’s schools, consuming 10.6 kWh/
ft2 of electricity and no thermal energy.
Built in 1993, the school features geoexchange and full air conditioning.
#3 Prince of Peace CES - Keswick, Ontario
#4 St Andrew ES - Burlington, Ontario
The board’s St. Andrew Elementary
School in Burlington comes in at #4
in the Enerlife 2009 list of top energy
performing schools. Built in 1999, it
sets the standard for top performing
schools without ground source heat
pump systems, using just 10.9 ekWh
(37 kBtu) per sq. ft. of total energy
(electricity and gas) in 2009.
Erin speaks with the authority of having
five schools in the top-20 list. Drawing
from Enerlife’s database of more than
500 North American schools, this
second annual report examines the
energy efficiency and best practices of
the top 20. The 2009 competition was
open to school boards across Canada
and the United States.
With 10 schools in the 2009 top
20, Norm Vezina, Senior Manager of

the energy efficiency of our schools
since 1999. We combine the best

The physical characteristics of the
schools are only the beginning of the
top performance story. What is more
remarkable in this 2009 report is that,
out of 27 school boards reporting to
date, three boards dominate the 2009
top 20:
• Built between 1959 and 2008
• Half heated with heat pumps or
electric heat, the rest with natural gas
boilers
• All but one are elementary schools (the
top-five secondary schools averaged
13.3 ekWh (45 kBtu) per sq. ft.).
#19 É.s.c. Trillium - Chapleau, Ontario
The top-performing secondary school is
École secondaire catholique Trillium in
Chapleau, Ontario. The Conseil scolaire
catholique du Nouvel-Ontario makes
“Green” a priority.
Michel Seguin, Director of Building
Maintenance and Janitorial, says
“It’s a challenge to offer education in
small northern communities because
the school has to be built with shops,
cafeteria, gym, labs, etc., even if it is
for a small population. That is why we
aim to keep operating costs as low as
possible.” CSCNO has incorporated
Keys to Success
What makes individual school boards
capable of achieving their portfolios?
All three boards report similar keys
to success found in Erin Holko’s
three-pronged approach, and in the
management policies and processes
that bind them together.
Building design does come first. “For
more than a decade we have been
building more and more efficient new
schools and renovations,” says Brad
Parkes, Assistant Manager of Design and
Construction at the Simcoe County DSB.
“Every project is a learning opportunity
which guides our ongoing efforts.”
Abdul Bilah at York Catholic DSB
reports a similar approach, with a focus
on more efficient plant and equipment
and on continuous improvement.
Operational excellence is the second
prong. The three boards follow rigorous
standards and procedures with their
building automation systems, and
with engagement of operations and
maintenance staff as active partners in
school performance. All make extensive
use of automation and real-time
electricity metering to stay on top of
performance across all their schools. All
have dedicated staff monitoring energy
use and responding to variances.
And active participation by school
communities is cited by the three boards
as essential to ongoing success. “Our
board’s core values include stewardship
of the Earth,” says Erin Holko. “We
encourage and recognize the vital
role that students and staff play in
sustainability.” The three boards are
active participants in the Eco Schools
environmental certification program,
and provide extensive outreach and
communications to their schools.
Every School can be Green
This 2009 report has added to the
large number of schools of varying age
and system types which are performing
between 10-15 ekWh (35-50 kBtu) per
sq. ft. of total annual energy use. Most
schools operating above this range have
the potential for substantial savings.
“We are working through a program
of re-engineering our higher energy
using schools” reports Brad Parkes.
“Retrofitting and re-commissioning
lighting and mechanical systems, and
upgrading building automation work
together towards a more consistent level
of performance across all of our schools.”
Monitoring your schools’ performance
and applying the three-pronged approach
create the roadmap for every school to be
a top performer.

Thin-brick in precast panels was used for the East Markham parking garage to match
and complement the "full bed laid in place" brick on the adjacent, much larger and
more significant East Markham Community Centre and Library Building.
Les panneaux préfabriqués parés de brique mince ont été utilisés pour le stationnement
d’East Markham afin de faire écho à la brique « franche » du Centre communautaire et
de la bibliothèque adjacents.
Thin-brick faced precast concrete wall panels
provide the look of traditional,
hand-crafted “laid in place
brick,” but with added features
that come only with the strength,
economy and ease of erection of
precast concrete.
Since thin-brick faced precast
wall panels are produced in a
controlled environment factory,
job site erection can take place
at any time of year and in
any weather, accelerating the
construction schedule. Costly
on-site scaffolding, winter heat
and protection needed for field
set “laid in place” brick masonry
are eliminated.
Les Panneaux Muraux De
Béton Préfabriqué revêtu de
briques minces offrent une allure
traditionnelle fait à la main et les
caractéristiques exclusives au béton
préfabriqué : force, faible coût et facilité d’installation.
Ces panneaux étant fabriqués dans
les conditions contrôlées d’une usine,
peuvent être installés au chantier à
tout moment de l’année, peu importe
la température, ce qui accélère
les travaux. Fini les échafaudages
coûteux, le chauffage hivernal et les
protections que requièrent les travaux
de maçonnerie sur place.

What's new in precast
The Florian Condominium in Toronto highlighting thin-brick faced precast
concrete panels for the balconies and condo facade.

préfabriqué avec finition de brique mince.
Thin-brick clad precast panels give the architect choices from a diverse selection of colours, sizes, textures, shapes and trim units, while easily allowing the
incorporation of details such as arches, curves, radii and patterned colours,
and bonds.
Demanding designs can be economically produced. A precast concrete panel
is engineered to act as a major design element in a building. Embedded thinbrick veneer gives a precast panel a facing with pleasing appearance, human
scale and the long-term durability of genuine clay brick with a wide selection
of vivid kiln-fired colours.
Manufacturing procedure
The panel is cast face-down. The bottom of the form is lined with an elastomeric (rubber compound) form liner. This liner is just hard enough to be
durable and soft enough to flex with the placement of the thin-brick units.
Well-designed form liners make a tight seal with the brick, preventing
leakage to the front of the brick. In addition, if desired, a temporary wax
coating can be pre-applied to the face of the thin-brick.
The kiln-fired clay thin-bricks are manufactured in much the same way as a
conventional “full bed, laid in place brick,” but are made with a dovetail, or
ridged, key back. This key back is a critically valuable feature of the product,
offering interlock with the poured concrete panel behind.
After a clear silicone release agent is sprayed on the liner, experienced
production personnel place the thin-bricks face down in the liner pockets,

couleurs, tailles, textures et formes. De plus, ils s’adaptent aisément aux
arches, rayons et motifs de couleurs, courbes et liaisons.
On peut donc produire des concepts exigeants à petit prix. On conçoit les
panneaux de béton préfabriqué pour servir d’élément architectural majeur
dans l’édifice. Le placage de briques minces donne au panneau préfabriqué
un revêtement agréable à échelle humaine, avec la durabilité et le choix de
couleurs vives que permet la vraie brique cuite au four.
Méthode de fabrication
On coule le panneau face contre terre. On place d’abord un séparateur
élastomère (composé de caoutchouc) dans le fond du coffrage. Il est
juste assez rigide pour durer, mais assez souple pour épouser la forme
des briques minces. S’il est bien conçu, ce séparateur formera avec la
brique une fermeture étanche qui empêchera toute fuite vers l’avant de
la brique. On peut aussi appliquer une cire temporaire sur la face de la
brique mince.
La fabrication des briques minces cuites au four ressemble à celles de
briques entières à poser sur place, mais la face arrière des briques minces
est striée. C’est cette particularité inestimable qui permet au produit de
s’emboîter avec le panneau de béton coulé qu’il orne.
On vaporise un démoulant transparent en silicone sur le séparateur, puis
des travailleurs chevronnés posent les briques minces face vers le bas dans
les espaces du séparateur, en s’assurant qu’elles sont bien appuyées au
quoi de neuf en prÉfabrication
ensuring they are seated on the bottom of the
liner. Approximately seven square metres of brick
can be placed in one hour – that is over 500
modular size bricks per hour.
After the brick is positioned in place, reinforcing
steel is laid in the form, spaced and positioned
appropriately. Then comes the concrete. Placed,
finished and cured, it creates the desired structural element.
Anchors are placed and after curing the form is
pulled, the liner is stripped and the bricks are
pressure-washed. The result is a panel that looks
as if it were laid by a skilled brick mason.
After the panel is freed, the form liner is cleaned
with high-pressure air and reused for the next
panel. As many as 50 panels can be cast from just
one form.
The finished precast panels are stored at the
precast factory and then shipped via truck to the
job site for just-in-time delivery, where they are
hoisted into place and attached to the building, in
virtually any weather and all seasons.
Precast panels can act as curtain walls, but can
also be designed to be load bearing interior and
exterior walls of the building.

fond. On peut poser ainsi environ sept mètres
carrés de briques (soit plus de 500 briques
modulaires) par heure.
Une fois les briques en place, on pose dans le
coffrage une armature en acier selon une disposition appropriée. Puis vient le béton qui, une fois
coulé, fini et séché, créera l’élément structurel
désiré.
Après le séchage, on retire le coffrage et le
séparateur, puis on lave les briques au jet sous
pression. Le résultat final est aussi beau qu’un
vrai mur de briques réalisé par un maçon
d’expérience.
On nettoie le coffrage et le séparateur à l’air
comprimé; ils pourront resservir jusqu’à 50 fois.
Les panneaux de béton préfabriqué sont entreposés à l’usine, puis ils sont livrés au chantier
juste à temps, par camion. Là, ils sont montés
à l’aide d’une grue et fixés au bâtiment. Cette
étape peut se faire en toute saison et par presque
n’importe quel temps.
Les panneaux de béton préfabriqué peuvent
servir de mur rideau, mais on peut aussi les
concevoir comme murs porteurs intérieurs et
extérieurs.
