Coquitlam Dam

Client: JJM Construction Ltd.

Location: Coquitlam, BC

Value: $1,765,640

Completion: June 2007

Project Synopsis:

The construction of a huge concrete gravity wall at one end of the dam structure which tied into a native rock outcropping. Tunnels were constructed inside the concrete structure to allow examination in the years to come. The structure was approximately 200ft. high at its deepest point. Access to the extremities of the structure was extremely difficult. However, with the use of a large tower crane founded on bedrock adjacent to the structure, the concrete work was completed on time, on budget.
