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.” Robert Burak, P. Eng. CPCI President 8 Issue 1 / 2012 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 notre site Internet, le www.cpci.ca, et cliquez sur le lien « 50th Anniversary Commemorative Book ». Robert Burak, Ing.

Hall 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. Brian J. Hall, B.B.A., MBA Executive Editor CPCI Managing Director Sustainability and Business Development 10 Issue 1 / 2012 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. Écrivez-nous à info@cpci.ca. Brian J.

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 MUNRO LTD. ENGINEERS CAN ASSIST YOU DURING THE DESIGN PHASE OF THE PROJECT TO ENSURE VALUE, QUALITY AND DELIVERY SPECIFICATIONS ARE MET — FROM THE OUTSET. Contact us at bridges@munroltd.com to discuss your project requirements. 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.

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 Environmental & Office Services at the “We have been continuously improving the energy efficiency of our schools since 1999. We combine the best of technology with empowerment of staff and students to achieve, sustain and recognize high performance.” Prince of Peace Elementary School #1 Mundy’s Bay PS - Midland, Ontario The top-two schools in this 2009 list are Mundy’s Bay Public School in Midland, Ontario (Simcoe County DSB), and Valleyview Public School (Rainbow TermoBuild Canada ADVERTORIAL The Best of Greenbuild 2011: Innovative Green Building Products of the Future TermoBuild Turns Precast Floors into a Heating and Cooling System DSB) in Val Caron, Ontario. Both schools opened in 2008, employ ground-source heat pumps and full air conditioning, and came in at 9.5 ekWh (32.5 kBtu) per sq. ft. of total energy. The 2009 top-20 schools can be characterized as follows: • Average energy use (39.5 kBtu) per sq. ft. 11.6 ekWh energy-saving strategies into all the renewal and renovation projects for their schools. 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. 50 Years, 50 Projects Owner/Developer: Shane B.

Panneau préfabriqué paré de brique mince en attente de nettoyage au jet d’eau avant son expédition. Embedded Clay Thin-Brick Genuine clay brick for precast concrete wall panels delivers a traditional look with all the benefits of precast By/par Jon Gravell Plaquages encastrés de briques minces cuites De vraies briques cuites pour panneaux muraux de béton préfabriqué : un look traditionnel avec tous les avantages du béton préfabriqué 62 Issue 1 / 2012 quoi de neuf en prÉfabrication 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.

L’immeuble en copropriété Florian de Toronto, paré de panneaux de béton 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, 64 Issue 1 / 2012 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.

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.
